I wanna see you do a full snare or tom head replacement speedrun with the impact driver pit-stop style. How fast can you remove old heads, put on new heads, then put the drum back into place and play a groove.
When the drill failed, I said out loud, "you need an impact driver", and then I was positively giddy when you actually got one out. Thanks for answering a question I never knew I had. For Science!
My first drums in high school had kind of a funky floor tom head, I didn't know why. Eventually I tried to replace it, and was told that the shells were so old, they no longer made heads in those sizes, so I'd have to get one custom made (which I couldn't afford.) Apparently the previous owner tried to get around this by going a size too small, cutting the rim of the head, and using CAULK to permanently secure it to the rim, thus solving the mystery of the funky floor tom head.
And the reality is that it's likely one of those vintage Ludwig / Sonor things where the shells are purposely slightly undersized and a 14" inch floor tom is like 13.something, but you're still supposed to use a 14" head.
It takes a special kind of man to be so passionate about collecting drums that he has all these vintage drums and gear just lying around, but still be willing to take an impact driver to them just to find out what happens. God bless you, Wade. Never change.
Watching this vid was like experiencing a fever dream with a fever of 103 degrees. The rampant chuckle, impact driver sound, and then quick taps with the drumstick. I felt like I was going looney toons. Keep up the great content Wade!
You know Wade’s a car guy because as soon as he started using an impact, he started calling the tension rods “lugs.” It’s almost like he has a car channel or something.
Bro, Im not even kidding. Despite this (and a bunch of other videos) being made for entertainment, It's actually super helpful to know when I'm behind the counter working at the music store.
Better crappy drum keys than *no* drum keys! I went to a jam night some time ago and ended up being the drummer for most of the night. And while it was mostly fun too, I was wishing the whole time I would've brought a drum key to be able to properly adjust the kick pedal on that e-kit, of which the beater was only a few centimetres away from the skin, and I was constantly getting cramps in my leg 🙄
An Aussie screaming at the top of his lungs while actively destroying drumheads is something I never would've guessed I'd be willing to watch. I love it
When the drill didn't work, I jokingly thought to myself - "ah fuck it bud, just give er a coupl'ah uggah duggahs and that'll get er done." But lmfao, he actually pulled out the impact driver. I've got it paused to type this but I'm so excited to see this.
Yo I love all of your vids that includes garbage time, dankpods they are so good and this one was good to keep on making content you are one of the most random (in a good way) and it gives you a sighn of relief that I still have hope in humanity. Love your content have a good day
When I was marching drum corps, we used to do a thing called "double hooping" to get higher tension out of the 6" tenor drums. We would cut the hoop off of a broken 6" head and put the hoop over a new head to get an extra 1/4" of tension out of the lug screws. Needless to say we broke a LOT of 6" heads trying to get the drums tuned that high.
We found out how far the Pearl marching snares can go one year when they decided to put Falam (made with Kevlar) heads on them. These snares were only a year old at the time. They were Ferrari red with the full-length chrome lugs, I think they were the Export Series? I'm pretty sure they weren't designed for those heads. The guys kept cranking and cranking on the lugs, enjoying the high-pitched pop that the snare made until the snare shell started collapsing under the bearing edge. I think we lost 2-3 snares that way. This was back in 1990-1991.
I’ve actually (accidentally) done this on a snare drum. I had a Ludwig accent 6.5” and for some reason fell in love with really thick 2 ply heads on it, but you had to really crank it. All the lugs just blew out like that eventually lol Also just a side thing, fun fact I guess, the reason Evan’s heads don’t pop like that is because the collar design
Evans uses an epoxy resin the same as Remo in an aluminum hoop. What you’re referring to is a COLLAR LOCK hoop which are made of steel. Many cheaper heads use a collar lock and even high quality brands like Aquarian.
In high school I played on the snare line, and our drum coach would crank the piss out of the drums - I think he used a socket wrench. If I recall right, we had Yamaha snares with die cast hoops and one piece tension lugs that spanned the shell length. With Remo CS heads, the mylar would pull out of the glue, leaving the glue in the rims. Around that time, Remo first came out with their Falam heads (kevlar laminate - shows how old I am!), which we switched to. Those heads are pretty much indestructible. So, as they were cranked, the lugs themselves would start to split. I think once we broke a hoop (the die cast ones don't really deform). I don't recall the tension rods breaking, though. I heard rumors that, if cranked enough and if the lugs held, the shell itself could fold using falams.
I guess it's good engineering in a way? The weakest link is a part that can be fixed (relatively) easily and cheaply (just get the headless tension rods out with pliers)
I did this back in the 80's. I found a $10 garage sale snare. I wanted to tighten it like a timbale, but the threads were dirty and stiff. I put a drum key in a vice, then used the size of the snare as the leverage to turn the tension rod. In my case, the lug housing itself cracked. I'm very surprised you has to resort to an impact gun. I was able to crack the housing just with the leverage of turning the drum on a fixed drum key.
Well that was fun. As a music store repairman for 36 years, I have real world experience with such drums. A lot of them. I find that OVER TIME, even half the tension you applied to these will destroy the lug inserts and then the lug casings. Often snare drums only have 6 or maybe 8 lugs, that means you cannot tension it beyond medium, which some kids will do in the band room. Over time the casings give out and the stubs going thru the shell will actually stress out and distort or shear off. The inserts strip easily. The hoops are fine. But sometimes the hoop to head to shell fit is so bad, the head will pull up under the hoop and there is nothing to do other than to try and keep perfect balance on the rods and only med tension will work. No matter the heads, there are some drums that are just junk. I have found this will cheaper Timbales as well. I did see a crushed drum shell (Slingerland TDR) back in the 80's that had a Kevlar head on it. 12 lugs cranked very tight! So the week link became the drum shell which buckled inward and the upper bearing edge. Oh this happens to Yamaha Power Lite as well, since they are NEVER designed to use a Falam head or the like. They will just get killed. !!! Oh the pain when I see that.
One time I was changing heads on a marching quad and since I’m a dumb ass I was turning the wrong way. I didn’t realize until one of the casings on the lugs popped off. Fortunately I had an extra drum with that same casing laying around that I replaced it with.
Yeah they're big leap in drum tuning tech, imo! Pretty expensive, but I think reasonably so. I'm wondering about getting a hardware conversion kit but I might wait for a cheaper alternative to hopefully come out soon.
That single point tuning system is too niche for modern drums. The biggest downfall is the inability to have independent head tuning. Plus I wouldn’t want to be anywhere near one of those kits when a wire decides to snap. No thanks! A novelty at best and nothing more than a curiosity for the majority of drummers.
@@Assimilator702 It's just the first iteration! I wouldn't be surprised if individual head systems come out soon. And the cables aren't under that much tension and seem quite strong.
I took one of those $40 soup can snares, removed the bottom, put a half cut snare resting on the head, which is power drilled as tight as it can go. I’m the drummer in a grind band so it sounds good. Makes the St. Anger snare sound like your drum key at 2:50
>whips out the slidy longboy twister< "Oh boy, he's really going to tension them isn't he? :)" >unholsters the impact driver< _"christ, that drum is dead. O_O"_
I love the fact that we actually got four different failure modes on a drum with just five lugs and then the rock solid 6 snapped heads on the Export Series, fucking amazing! Also, not a single Soulja Boy reference in the entire video? Mate you've got more restraint in ya than I ever will xD

I straight up knew a guy that loved having a snare drum tuned so high it buckled the shell
I hate how weird but cool it sounded
You never know how St Anger will reveal himself
im addicted to that snare sound.

I would like to see Wade doing a drum cover of Frantic or St. Anger in the stream.
Obviously with drums tuned similarly like this. :D
OHHH.... So Lars just lost a bet with his drum tech, then. Now it makes sense!
As a drummer, i have always thought about this whenever I tune or replace my drum heads, thanks for taking one for the team!
