I was in a second-hand shop when a Gibraltar practice kick pad caught my eye. Initially, I thought the base might be good to mount a 13" mesh shell I made a while ago, but it looks like I could probably just convert the pad.
I'll have to make a mesh head because the playing surface is about 7" - but that's no drama. However, what should I use to fill it?
I've seen some posts about converting Remo pads, using foam and a tin lid, but clearly I'd have to mount the piezo set off from centre, otherwise it would get bashed to pieces.
Anyone done this or seen a step-by-step guide?
