makes my ransomes heavy look v cheap... theres a lot of work rebuilding a shagged drum.
i'm in the right business having a wood workshop and saw mill and seasoned timber on site but even then theres no money in doing one, if I had to do a wreck commercially it would cost possibly 8-10k thered be 3-4k in timber before you cut it up....
there was a man rebuilt a tullos drum from scratch (he used to work for them) and made a beautiful job.
as for the foster theres some strongly priced drums on there from lincs, not selling but I expect its like the mlb syndrome, some one sees it advertised for X so thinks its worth X, i'd not buy a drum without having a good crawl as its the bits you can't see that cost the money and take some fixing, when I haul it back i'll put some pics of my horsefall/ Humphries drum up, that's a reall challenge but i'll do it as theres not many of them about, probably similar to the wantage that NW has, though I was pretty much given it.
