Ok John I just saw them that is a set of Slingerland not an true Leedy. You did a fantastic job of restoring and re chroming parts. You should have looked at a lot of my post regarding polishing and cleaning of these timbales. I assume you paid big buck for most of this work, specially the chrome it through the roof currently. The value of these Slingerland timbales will only extend as much $500.00 Yet they came out beautiful there is no value in Slingerland and with no stand even less. Slingerland when it came to there timbales sold many due to the resemblance to Leedy in look but the sound was never the same as Leedy. I have a set of the later 1969-70's model they made with 8 x 6 lug a very rare set that Slingerland made to compete with Ludwig Timbales. Here is a photo of them
