A better way would have been using a ball pien hammer. Because those are exactly what those are used for and you probably would have been able to find tune the sounds a little bit better. But hey man creativity knows no bounds good job bro

@@tactic7774 I own a 8" and a 12" and my 8" sounds great! But for some odd reason, the 12, not so much. Even tho I bought them both brand new, but at different times & diff. sellers via ebay.
So, my friend and I did a much cruder version of this in high school. We wanted a china cymbal, but the school wouldn't provide one, so we took the top cymbal from a pair of shitty brass hi hats and kicked the shit out of it until it sounded really trashy. It actually ended up sounding really good for a makeshift china cymbal haha. Sorry high school music department, but we had to do what we had to do 🤷♂️
@@mrcrabs8787 Don't think they ever even noticed. My friend and I were the only active drummers in the school at the time, so the brass cymbal went from having zero use to being useful, so I'm sure they won't mind haha.
@mrcrabs8787 We used to get up to some shit in our music room. Music teacher was a strange lady though, drummer in our year stole cymbals, tried to just walk out with them half sticking out of his backpack, teacher was like are you bringing those back? He's like "yeah" and never did
I am Chinese. bronze percussion instruments were first developed by the Chinese and Turks in East Asia. Irregular or crimped, to prevent the resonance of the copper sound delay. Turkic people pursue sound extension, the cymbals made as smooth as possible. But beyond that, the alloy ratio is important. Chinese make cymbal alloy, use 13% to 16% tin since 3000 years ago, is very different from the Turkic cymbals
I think trashy is an actual adjective that drummers use to describe the sound of a cymbal (more specifically a China cymbal). I'm not a drummer so don't quote me on this.
I have an old drum set with one cymbal(besides hi hat) and it’s basically a thick tin sheet, and it has small bends on the edge and is missing the felt to support it 😢
It was a straight fold, with part of the cymbal pointing upward. He tried to get Paiste to make a cymbal with the same sound, but they refused. I'd buy it if someone made it.
@@hedgeearthridge6807 Yes. As I stated a claw hammer is NOT for shaping metal, so the metal its made from is more brittle. Never shape metal with a claw hammer. Proper tool usage 101.
I get what your trying to say here but I've been in the trades for close to 15 years now and I have never shattered a hammer of any kind and I've smashed pretty much everything you can imagine with a hammer.
Bro this happened with the first cymbal I got I 5 inch crack down the middle and whenever I hit it it turns into a china, moral of the story, if your new to drumming don’t beat the absolute shit out of the cymbals cause it will break them
Dude, it kinda sounded like a cookie pan, honestly… try drilling some medium to large holes in it…. Just a suggestion… Keep up the good work! *DRUM IS FUM*
@@RasputinPrime75Whether the tone is good or not is pure taste. But I’m certain the amount of fidelity loss is negligible for the purposes of this demonstration.

My drummer used this same type of generic crash for maybe 2 1/2 years of us playing gigs and by the time we had finally gotten some new cymbals, that crash looked like the one in this video. Worst sounding cymbal ever
Next time you want to hammer your cymbal and actually have those differences in density… Don’t hammer on a carpet. You can beat the living crap out of any cymbal and it will become a trash crash. I’ve got like 6 of these stupid projects and they always end up in the bag, not on the kit. Build yourself some acoustic baffles, or wide- band absorbers. Waaay more fun.
next time grab a butane torch and anneal it before bending, then reheat dunk and swirl in water. will help prevent cracks. they might not be there now but with use it will stress crack.. ask me how i found out.
I do like it. But yaknow. This cat needs some posters. Help cover his wall by sending me money and I’ll tell him. See? Doesn’t even need a bank number. Just a social security
57 seconds drawing dots, 3 seconds sound test
And he could've just used a string and spun it around while attached to the centre
Sounds horrible
@@guitarwhisperer6262 subjective
Sounds good to me
Malograste el platillo. O ese sonido espantoso es el qué buscabas ?
Lots of fun to be had with a hammer and those kid drum set brass cymbals. You can DIY a clap stack while you're at it.

That sounds really good! I’d rock that!
I mean, it sounds more like a splash than china, but cool idea
Ready for brootal deathcore breakdowns
I made Something very similar with a crash ride 18" solar and a 13" B8 bottom hat, I have created two cymbals with awesome sound! 🤩
I can't complain. Those cymbals are cheap and mostly for display. Go nuts!
Sounds pretty good I reckon
Sounds awesome
Sounds good for stacking
Very very cool!
I like that we used to just been that boy with her hand but putting a hammer to it give it the extra Bend too
finally - that guy from the other video evolved!
Time to play One More Red Nightmare
Yep you perfectly destroyed that cymbal. It sounds like one of those kid kit toys
Doubles as a Trash can lid
You don't need to mark them 😂 if ya not goona drill em
Then how is he going to know where to hammer and keep it relatively even..?
Honestly you should have kept it stock 😂
Works if you just turn the cymbal up side down too🤨
That’s actually not bad
handcrafted in his crib
You should have given it to me…
what you should make videos on is how to hammer so quickly!!
noooo he sped up the hammering footage!!
@@ashersaipe stop going on the internet to spread lies
Wow, you made trash from a perfectly working cymbal
Is this how to fuck up a cymbal? Man, I've been looking everywhere for this. Cuz who wants to order the right symbol?

Quase isso
Need some holes for the trash
Feels like a homemade Zildjian Trashformer, neat!

Someone show this to DankPods
Over on his channel "The Drum Thing?"

Me too. It's mess of good cymbal...
@@love_kolya it's a cheap brass cymbal
its literally a 19 dollar unbranded chinese brass cymbal@@love_kolya
Both sound ass
@P-nk-m-naJude 1:7
consider a ball peen hammer next time! it will help you much more. a carpenters hammer is meant for driving nails. love cymbal experiments, keep it up
Sheet metal hammer actually would be best
@@seancorbett8777So you're suggesting a metalworking hammer designed for peening?
@@Kaye23X4 no, there's no ball or peen on a sheet metal hammer. I'm a tinsmith. I know what I'm talking about, don't patronize me.
it does sound like trash. good content
🤣🤣
OK I'M DOING THIS
update: I did it and it sounds holy. happy with the results. would recommend
That hurt me as a drummer😢
Peening works wonders on cheap flavorless cymbals.
Already sounded like one to begin with...😂
I did the same thing with my cymbal! It sounds great!
ruclips.net/user/shortsiyhhxt5efwY?feature=share
How exactly are u supposed to make that cymbal make that crash sound
@@dominickraheem8459did you watch the video
You buy trash cymbals from companies
He makes his own
I steal my neighbor trashcans at 2am
WE ARE NOT THE SAME
He’s ready to play some metal breakdowns.
I would make a stack out of that cuz you can just melt it and flatten it then stack on some other cymbals

@@kcChicken123 thank you my autocorrect must have chosen the wrong one :)
Excuse me how is the word "symbol" offensive? I don't get it
@@Cody_Cigar that “symbol” means something that represents something else, but ‘cymbal’ means a cymbal that you use
Couldn’t you basically flip the cymbal over and call it good
Jesus. No anvil, no proper hammer no know how, just SMASH
I did mine more china sloped from lancecampeu
Saved my old 13 inch hats.. top hat for china and bottom for stack
I did this with my crash
unintentionally
드러머는 한국이나 서양이나..ㅋ

Bill Bruford used a similar contraption (a bent Zilco cymbal I think) on Red by King Crimson.
It was a straight fold, with part of the cymbal pointing upward. He tried to get Paiste to make a cymbal with the same sound, but they refused. I'd buy it if someone made it.
Making a china with pre-distorted edges. lol
For working metal, use a Ball Pean hammer. The claw hammer you used is too brittle. You're lucky you didn't put a sliver into your eyeball.
Engage safety squints
It's a piece of sheet bronze on a carpet, there is absolutely no way that's even an issue. Not any more than it's an issue with mild steel nails

Se siente como un Zildjian Transformer casero
How to make a shit cymbal sound shit in a different way 👍
Sounded good to me lol
No era más fácil comprar o ahorrar y comprar
Bah limite t aurais dû garder la première
Does this work with E-Kit Crash?
As a drummer me: why would you broke your own cymbal😭
@@pingooffical they’re really cheap cymbals, I wanted to experiment with them rather than buy an expensive china cymbal
This is something I might try thanks for the idea
Just don’t ruin a good cymbal haha, this was stock cymbal from the Ludwig Backbeat complete kit, it was a naturally undesirable cymbal
@@kietursarcade this is exactly the type of cymbals that I can afford tho
Sounds better than my china
Sounds better than the most lines of Zildjian 😮
Sounds like crap
It sounded bad enough to start with.
Where’s the sound check??
Quedo como tostada 😂
My trash crash is sweating rn
Dude, it kinda sounded like a cookie pan, honestly… try drilling some medium to large holes in it…. Just a suggestion…
Keep up the good work! *DRUM IS FUM*
I had the same thought
It may sound differently if you were actually there. The sound recording in this video may not be that great.

Now, paint it like a rustic blank, put a zildjian logo and sell it on ebay for a thousand dollars. Ur welcome.
a beggarly sound
I have one of those and I do love it but it just breaks after using it a few times. Well that's what you get for using low-end cymbals.
It's easier to put some holes in it
ASMR sound! :D
bros foldin that like tin foil
basically is!
At the first of the video, your face and hair are really cute 🤘🤘🤘

How thick was your crash? I’m trying do the same but I think my crash is too thick, maybe I should use more hammer.
You can get tje same affect by driving over it with a Hyndai. But not a BMW, cause that's not trashy enough.
Next time you want to hammer your cymbal and actually have those differences in density…
Don’t hammer on a carpet.
You can beat the living crap out of any cymbal and it will become a trash crash.
I’ve got like 6 of these stupid projects and they always end up in the bag, not on the kit.
Build yourself some acoustic baffles, or wide- band absorbers. Waaay more fun.
Why not just put it on a stand and spin it around while the marker touches it spot you want to bend?
Why don’t u buy one. Paiste makes amazing chinas. Signature 20” Thin 👍
next time grab a butane torch and anneal it before bending, then reheat dunk and swirl in water. will help prevent cracks. they might not be there now but with use it will stress crack.. ask me how i found out.
Como lo descubrió?
Would've been nice to hear a comparison. The no name cymbal probably sounded like that to begin with.
So glad we found a use for old cymbals!!!
I'm not trying to be rude but why ruin a perfectly good cymbal why don't you just buy a 1950s cymbal.
I have a crash cymbol , I accidentally dropped it 2 or 3 times.. now it's sounds like China cymbals 😅🥲
I do like it. But yaknow. This cat needs some posters. Help cover his wall by sending me money and I’ll tell him. See? Doesn’t even need a bank number. Just a social security
Why would you make your cymbals sound like a trash can?😭
Hahahahahahahahahah Que bosta! Ficou pior ainda!! Hahahahahahahah
That cymbal was already trash to begin with. You ain’t doin dat to a B20 either.
Na that’s straight china now fully converted no longer a trash crash😂😂😂😂😂
Vaya manera de arruinar un crash…
