WANTED: Old Drum Sets, Drums & Parts

Grant from Gonville

Do you have a tired or unwanted old drum set that needs saving?

As a retired drummer, my hobby is refreshing tired old drum kits into usable sets; so I can offer them to new drummers for a fraction of the cost of a new set.

Every set is stripped, inspected & cleaned. Wherever possible, the worn, damaged, or missing parts are repaired or replaced. I re-wrap the shells in attractive vinyl or fabric and then reassemble them as refreshed drum sets with a new lease of life.

Ideally, I'm looking for complete (but tired) drum sets, and for a really complete one (5+ drums & 3+ cymbals) I'll pay up to $200.00.

I'll also consider partial drum sets, usable drum kit parts, individual drums, cymbal stands, cymbals, etc. They must be cheap (or free) and within a cost-effective driving distance from Wanganui.

See the before and after shots of what I can achieve - and contact me at 021 447481 if you have anything I might be interested in.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
