Ludwig super Sensitive snare drum cam slide replacement Last viewed: 5 hours ago

Loading...

I'm in the process of replaceing my super sensitive snare cam slide. However, a rivet was sent to attach or secure the cam slide. Does anyone know what type of rivet gun is used to secure the rivet in place?

Thanks,

SG

You don't need a gun to install it. Stick the tip of a Phillips screwdriver into the tiny hole at the end of the pin. Tap the end of the screwdriver (make sure you have a hammer head held steady against the head of the retaining pin on the other side of the slide gates,) whack it a couple of times gently until you -splay the hollow end of the pin- enough so that it will stay in place without popping out. That's why the pin is hollow! So you can spread the end to lock it in place. Kinda like a grommet clamps the badge to the shell from the back by being splayed.

Too many great drums to list here!
