I'm looking to build a custom drum to replace my factory 2" drum on my CA-53 Valor speed bag platform. I want it to look really cool and have great rebound qualities. It's got to be thick...around 5 inches...and about 28" diameter. I could make a low cost one from 2x6" fir wall studs...but since this wood is soft, I don't think the rebound will be that good. The other choices would be maple, oak or poplar. Weight for a 5"x28"diameter hardwood drum would be about 70-80lbs. The CA-53 platform is really well designed and can take the additional load...
What would your ideal platform look like?
