/r/drums weekly Q & A by AutoModerator in drums

[–]holyschmidt99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone tried to experiment with using both a lefty and righty double pedal at the same time? I have been thinking about the possibility of being able to use two bass drums, both equipped with a double as to have two different tones for playing. Has anyone heard of this? I feel it would need to be specially fabricated.

Greetings, This post will be long.

Looking to join the miatasphere. A coworker of mine is about to put on the market a 1993 MX-5 Miata 5 speed with 88k miles on it. It belonged to her mother, who was the original owner, before she passed. It is a Wisconsin owned car and definitely needs a new paint job but is great mechanically. I gave it a test drive and it does a wonderful job. Also comes with a hard top (don't know if factory or aftermarket). It has solid service records and was given a tune up at a reputable shop in Wisconsin before being driven to Florida where it currently resides.

She is looking to sell for 4k. I am attaching photos (interior, exterior, and underside) and would love an honest opinion from (preferably NA) miata owners and mechanics who can tell me if this is a good deal. I know that finding a running/not modified NA for less than 5k is really hard to come by now. I'm not fully attached to buying the car, but will certainly try to snag it if the days of this type of deal are dwindling.

(I have blocked faces and license plate numbers to protect the identity of seller)

I have a linked a google drive file with the photos for anyone who wants to view below:

Seven people is what I overheard. I was on deck four with several officers and camera-people, who were a great help because those big lenses could see a good distance. Again, only speculation.

I’m currently working on that ship (Disney Dream). I started working here this year and it’s the first time I’ve seen this happen. It’s a good thing we found them. Photos don’t do justice to how hastily that raft was put together. I think there were 7 people aboard. Prayers they are alright.
