Right, so i keep struggling to find materials mentioned on here because the majority seem to be from shops based in the US.
this thread is for myself and anyone else in the UK to share the suppliers and materials they have used or found.
Cones -
i so far have just gone for the sandblock type cone. i got mine from wilkinsons but i think you can get them a little cheaper from markets etc.. (there is a seller on ebay that does cones but i haven't tried them yet, UFO or something like that)
Mesh Heads -
Tdrum, i have three of these and i'm pleased with them only had a month so can't comment on durability.
http://www.thomann.de/gb/tdrum_th12.htm (it will be shipped from Germany but checkout the full website, lots of edrum stuff and cheap so you can make it worthwhile)
http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Arcade-Music - arcade music usually have some, i have one. its a bit thicker than the Tdrum ones but only time will tell if that better.
Rim Silencer -
i found some rubber U-Channel on ebay but the seller no longer uses ebay. i have messaged him about the product and he would still be happy for custom so give him a shout [email protected] and quote 'BenCTheMusicMan from ebay put me onto you about your rubber U-Channel' (or something similar, and no i'm not on commission)
bits and bobs, screws, bolts, rubber washers - wilkinsons
Thats all i can think of for now so i best get back to work!
