Jinx - Greg - The images show up on my screen! I think Mike Layton could see them too. I'll try reloading the photos and see if that helps.

Yep I can see the pics. Great stuff John I bet your excited to play them. I know you've been waiting for years for your green glass. Glad you snagged them. Man you got me hooked on them. I'm saving up for a kit. They sound so good in the vids I've seen.
Not a guru just havin fun with some old dusty drums.

Vinny - Cool! How do you like the acro? Super clean drum, right? Enjoy it my friend, you earned it!
Thanks guys... don't know why the first set of photos is not showing. At least you can see the new ones I posted.
Glenn - You can have the $ ready to buy Blaemires and wait forever for a kit to come up for sale (which is extremely rare) or... you can buy one that Jerry & Dave manufactured and not have to wait. The shells are the -same- on Allen's drums and the Jenkins/Martin drums. Six of one, half a dozen of the other. (*Jinx - I never asked: is it 'Jerry' or 'Gerry'? I hope I haven't been misspelling it all this time!)
The bass drum is done! My Ghod in Heaven, you have to hear this thing!!!!!!!!!! Greg - I used an Evans EMAD on the batter as you recommended. Good call! I've got a coated REMO Emperor on the reso side tuned to an F-note. No additional muffling added inside or out. Just the EMAD rings are enough. The bass drum sings!
Scott - The old-fashioned Faucet style T-rods you sold me are excellent! I was so happy to see how 'minty' the condition of the pieces is. They look Great on the bass drum. Thanks buddy!
Photos shortly...
Thanks all for comments. I'm having a ton of fun, hope you are too.
