Any interest stainless re-mans... I have two of those I would part with.

Yes, I could cope if the price was ok. Although I know they're not cheap to begin with. You see, I have two kits that need them and one is never going to be original. But I do have a genuine die cast on that kit; so I could just swap that one over to the Cleveland clone I'm trying to make.

$20 each plus shipping... I think I paid $24.. maybe $27... PM me if you want them, I'll ship them tomorrow. They really are very, very nice and never been on a drum. I'd be happy to have you use them. No sense letting them sit in a box; I bought them a long time ago.

Jim,

Those are not chrome though,are they?

Nope... I'm not sure what you call it. Just plain stainless.

Well - I'm on a budget, I can tell you. Someone said these SS models can strip threads if they are different threads? I really don't know. But you've used these on a mount? Are these from Petty?

No,mine are the real deal..off a early 60's Rogers kit....

The two I have are from Jim Ryan... I was going to replace all four collets on my Rogers Tower kit with these because they are so nice. I bought four but I ended up just using two of them for the legs and I kept originals on the tom and cymbal mounts.

They are quite nice... Jim Ryan was recommended to me on the forum. I have used Slingerland parts from Jim Petty... certainly equal in quality.

$20 is a good price for these... really just trying to help out with another option. I can absolutely understand your desire to stay original.

I looked for about three years to find original legs for that Tower 14" floor tom.

These collets aren't going anywhere so don't feel pressured to purchase them immediately or anything like that.

I have one complete with plate, bolts, etc. for $25.00. E-mail [email][email protected][/email] for photos, etc.
