wow that suddenly sounded really good!! i actually did this with a friend about a year ago, but we used 2 pairs of hihats that i got for like 5 dollars
Excellent go at it. It does sound good. Inspired to use some old cheaper (and cracked) cymbals to have a go as well. Basically tweak cymbals until “nice nice”.. Kudos on your rips on the cans too Thanks!
I did this too with 4 or 5 splashes of various sizes from 6" to 10" some with holes already in them and added a bunch of gaff tape. I hated that I lost four cymbals though. This is genius! Sound great!
I just saw Magdalena Bay live the other day and their drummer Nick Villa had a super sick sounding custom stack that looked like 3 cymbals sealed tight with several pieces of metal. (there is a vid on his instagram.) It seems like he works a chrome and truck parts shop as well though, so he might have access to some crazy machinery 😅
I put together a couple of nickle silver high hats, ( a 14" and a 12" ) and topped it with a cheap splash and sounded pretty good. No need for hammering or bending. :-)
bruh why are you hammering that in your lap set that on the ground lol. My highschool band used to hoard all the broken cymbals in our schools band room and stack them up, skys the limit with this stuff if you like weird short clappy clangs, you can sett a splash on a crash, you can take 2 broken cymbals and wrap the broken bits around eachother so it deadens at that spot, stack 3 or more, all kinds of fun.
Awesome ! ! ! ! Considering everybody's hands wasn't made in Istanbul, how are it needs to sound is by choice acoustically and special effects will do the rest.... Some home made stuff sound better than others ones and can be tweaked......
Brass kind of sucks with cymbals, although I took a meinl brass ride, heavy and sanded it some then added hammering, and i loved the DRY after effect, still use it on drum set! If it helps, I had used a bench grinder, but you can also use sandpaper of driller to custom cymbals for your liking. Wear safety equipment.
Ayyyy time to put my 15 year old planet z hats to work 🎉🎉🎉 I might also name them crapstack and if anyone asks me about them at gigs or practice, I'll reference you 🙏
I've been thinking about doin the same thing. After watching this video, how could I not lol. I'll post a video on my channel when I do. I'll be sure to give u a mention.
@@drumswithatom Oh your cymbals must not be the type I'm thinking. I've done it with really cheap thin brass cymbals from the absolute cheapest drumkits
the key to making a clap sound, this or electronic is having several very noisy percussion playing at slightly different pitches, that's why you see in the ones before 3 cymbals together of different size
I took an old beat up splash from a kids toy drumset, and an 8" sabian B8 splash and stacked them together, I shit you not, sounds identical to a clap stack, I'd put money against it.

@@drumswithatom ill take 12
On the floor wacking 24 cymbals with a hammer as we speak
Ahhhhh,....your not bad at drumming, you suck at thinking and working w hands
If rdavidr thinks it sounds good, it must be amazing
you just saved a lot of money, that clap sounds great
Thanks bro!
“Does this sound like crap or clap?” Yes
Sick vid and cymbals man! And CHOPS
Yo Steven thank u so much man! For a small channel like mine your kind words go a long way 🥹 CHOPZ
Finally a great use for those lousy hi-hats that come with low end kits! That sounds great through both a real mic and the phone. Great job.
Thanks Joseph!
wow that suddenly sounded really good!! i actually did this with a friend about a year ago, but we used 2 pairs of hihats that i got for like 5 dollars
That’s awesome mate! Yeah I wasn’t expecting to get those results that quickly hahaha 😆
You have a really good sense of humor and feel like an experienced RUclips, i enjoy this! (and that stack)
Thank you mate!! 😁
UNDERRATED
A round of applause for the makeshift clap stack👏🏻
👏
Sounds great! Also very funny sense of humor, subscribed!
Thank you mate!
Man I'm liking the sound you created there. I might have to have a rummage see what spare/old/nasty cymbals I have lying around.
Thanks man, lmk how u get on!
It sounds so great, one of the most hilarious videos I've watched so far too! Instantly subbed
3:13 was the hardest I've laughed at a youtube vid in a hot minute. Keep it up
Thanks mate!!
definitely a promotion from crappy hi-hats to a decent clap stack, nicely done!
Hahaha I’d like to think so too, thanks bro!!
Bro i gonne do this to with my old hi hat set a realy nice idea, and realy great Vids men, you do a great job with youre editing.
Yeah go for it bro!! Really happy with how it turned out and so fun to play hahaha. Also thank u so much mate 🙏🤜
Excellent go at it. It does sound good. Inspired to use some old cheaper (and cracked) cymbals to have a go as well. Basically tweak cymbals until “nice nice”..
Kudos on your rips on the cans too
Thanks!
Since my band has a lot of those default cymbals, I'll definitely do something like this, thx!
Awesome!! Have fun 😎
Sounds very clap and not crap at all!!!
Awesome bro! 👊
I did this too with 4 or 5 splashes of various sizes from 6" to 10" some with holes already in them and added a bunch of gaff tape. I hated that I lost four cymbals though. This is genius! Sound great!
Yeah I get that bro, I was happy to sacrifice these luckily. Thanks!
This guy is to drumming what Dani was to gamedev. Same energy nearly to a tee
I have done the exact same thing! It worked well for me too and is now a permanent addition to my kit!
awesome bro, yeah they're great!
Bro made an 808 clap stack lol. Very nice!
Thanks bro!
LMAO THE MCJUGGERNUGGETS CLIP AT THE BEGINNING MY WHOLE CHILDHOOD

That sounds pretty damn good mate

Nice work, homie! That stack sounds insane!
Thanks my g!

Just checked it out bro, looks (and sounds) really cool!!
Pretty sure its a Stack Ring Percussion's clap stack. :)
Clap for sure
Hahaha niceee
Nicee!!! I have an old pearl beginner hihat I might try this with.
Dude!! hands and speed nice!!!
Thanks man!!
Sounds like a 808 clap 🔥
Your drum set configuration is just making me anxious 😂
Weird but it works 😂

Yours actually sound better than Rdavidr's clap stack!!! Nice work!!!
Thanks man!!

Gotta love chopz hahaha
Entertaining video with great chops... You're like a less edgy Zack Grooves. Enjoying your channel.
Hahaha so glad you’re enjoying. Thank u bro!

claaaaaaaap, legendary video man
Thanks my man!!!
Definitely sounds useable. I’m going to go hunting through my closet now.
Good luck bro!
Nice drumming! 👌
Thanks a lot!

Cool bro!!
That sounds killer! Are you concerned that it might re-invert itself if you smack it too hard?
Sounds better than those expensive crapstacks ;-)
sounds sick mate!!!...so crappy!!...loved it
Thanks mate!!
it sounds CRA...TASTIC LOL!
Seriously tho, DOPE
Hahaha thank you bro!
Sounds amazing 😅
yo the sound is Atomik! "thumbs UP"
Haha thanks mate!
@@drumswithatom I made my own yesterday, sounds clapstack
Epic!
Sounds great and encouraging to get there w/o cash investment, thanks 🎉
Great sound!!!!!
Thanks mate!
Ayyyy time to put my 15 year old planet z hats to work 🎉🎉🎉 I might also name them crapstack and if anyone asks me about them at gigs or practice, I'll reference you 🙏
awesome bro, appreciate it!
Thinking about doing this with my stock pearl cymbals I got with my roadshow a couple years ago
That sounds sick
Thanks man!
Sounds sick man!!!
Thanks mate!
man your amazing!!!😄
Thank you man!! 😁
CLAP CLAP CLAP! Nice, real nice!
Thanks!!
Decent and crap all at the same time. Amazing.
Phase one: Clap
Phase two: Stack
= Clapstack #technicallynotwrong
🤣🤣🤣
Man your crapstack is a fucking genius masterpiece!
Thanks bro!
Great video, sounds cool 😎
Clap, for sure!
Let’s go! Hahaha thanks Matthew 👊
why is it so hard to remove the bells with my cymbals 😢
love it!
Thanks Joe!
It sounds CLAP!!!!!!
Hahaha let’s goo!
I've been thinking about doin the same thing. After watching this video, how could I not lol. I'll post a video on my channel when I do. I'll be sure to give u a mention.
Awesome man, enjoy!!
Sounds great to me! The ones I'm looking at are $400+
I handyman I see, using your own lap as a workbench for hammering
Where there’s a will there’s a way 😤🫡
awesome! just be careful of the CIA and FBI dude
Haha thanks man
This guy🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😼💙
Yes IS the good job
❤️
metal fabrication tip: hammering / pounding out metals would be a lot more practical if done on the floor not on our lap :X!
🤣🤣will keep it in mind for next time mate!
I'm making my own too now
Nice!
very cool!
Thanks!
man when i saw this vid in my recommended i thoughtu had thousnads of views, looks like thats now the case, so i subscribed 😭😭😭😭
Thanks bro 🥹 I’m trying 💀 lmao
@@drumswithatom also its "not" not "now" 😭😭, and yea no problem ^^
Yep! You actually put in more effort than necessary haha you can just bend cheap thin cymbals over your knee or whatever
Hahaha I actually tried bending it myself first, either the cymbals very strong or I’m very weak 🤣🤣
@@drumswithatom Oh your cymbals must not be the type I'm thinking. I've done it with really cheap thin brass cymbals from the absolute cheapest drumkits
Clap FOR SHORE Killer
Nice !!
Thanks bro!
Where did you learn to play like that?
Hahaha just years of practice bro!
when its not tight it sounds like a whip splash, and if its tight enough it sounds like a expensive clap stack.
Noice!
If you want it darker, either throw some tape on that B or leave them outside in the dirt for a month
Thanks man will definitely give tape a go!
Ok now im going to destroy my cymbals too. I’ll be back
the key to making a clap sound, this or electronic is having several very noisy percussion playing at slightly different pitches, that's why you see in the ones before 3 cymbals together of different size
Will be interesting to see how it sounds with an extra cymbal mate!
What make/model junk hats did you use; does it matter? I assume these had minimal lathing.
The ones that came with my mapex tornado, no brand 😃
If I don't say it someone else will, but those collapsed bells straight up look like assholes. And yet the end product doesn't sound like shit. 10/10.
😂😂😂
Clap... ☝️😎
clap stack dont have bells because theyre upside down and bent craziily lol..
would it be smoother to hammer if I torch the bell?
May be bro! To be honest once I got a big enough hammer it was pretty easy anyway tho hahaha
CLAP!!!!
😁😁
This doesn't sound like a clap because it is an entire SMACK!
I can't understand why they wouldn't send everyone free cymbals upon request!? It's not like they are expensive....
Ikr wtf 🤬🤬
If Meinl does not produce the crap stack, I'm gonna riot
😂😂😤
Made with Traditional British Cymbal-Making Methods😁
#backbritishcymbalmakers !! 🇬🇧
I took an old beat up splash from a kids toy drumset, and an 8" sabian B8 splash and stacked them together, I shit you not, sounds identical to a clap stack, I'd put money against it.
Hahahaha that’s epic man. Clear evidence that kid’s toy drum sets are the best
That's a Will Smith Slap! 😁
😂😂😂let’s go!
No wayyyyyyyy
😃
NOT CRAP!
Let’s go! 😎🔥
I have one of those I can give it to you
U use it bro!
Clap
👏😃
