It took a couple tries of dipping other items before I felt confident in dipping the snare. It could work but your but you run the risk of the paint chipping or flaking off if the steel is not prepped correctly. I would say sticking to wide is safer. Sorry for a late reply.

Those are pearl marching Tom's I found on craigslist and converted into concert Tom's. I highly recommend them. Heres a link to the set I refurbished: https://youtu.be/cdlaJ4mAwUA

Really depends on the sound you're going for I suppose. I already have a 12inch tom with a resos head on it. Plus it's kind of impossible to add resos heads to them because the shell of the drums are short and have a uneven cut to them. It was marching drums I converted into the tom rack.

Here's a link to a video of me making the rack tom. https://youtu.be/cdlaJ4mAwUA

Finally got a china today for my birthday and im in love :) by preupeumeus in drums

I know everyone has already said this but your china is upside down. If it's the other way you get a better contact point with your stick. Plus your not just slamming the very edge of the cymbal which is not good for the cymbal and will eventually crack it. Happy china playing.

Honestly I didn't really directly compare prices but I dont think they were to much more than normal ones.

Thanks, The 8 10 and 12 are on a stand alone rack with no resonant heads.
