Hi,
I noticed that the 12" are very shallow
. @Dobly used a clever way to lift the shells using Embroidery hoops
http://www.alesisdrummer.com/index.php?topic=6685.msg46070#msg46070Since I want to avoid this and working on a 'special' convention where foam will be placed only near the rim ,I am worried that hitting hard the center will hit the shallow bottom of the pad .
If I tight very hard the mesh would that work, or I will hit the bottom?
Anyone who has not lifted the shell could share some info?
Edit: Has anyone managed to 'cut' the mesh on a heavy strike ?
