All but one drum is now completed. (I am waiting on a backordered 8" Pearl Mufflehead from my local music store, so can't finish the last one yet).

Outstanding steps remaining:

• Figure out a way to secure the bass drum pedal (either to the drum / frame or to a large enough block of wood on the floor that it stays in place)
• Figure out the hi hat controller (my previous version was a hideous behemoth of MDF that used multiple IR LEDs and a micro switch to detect both fully closed plus various analog levels of openness); the new one must do the same thing, and may well use the same approach, but I need to clean it up and make it look pretty to match the rest of the set.
• Wait for the PCBs, and cross my fingers that they actually work.
• Figure out what I want to do with the faceplates (do I order another batch that actually fit, or do I just cut my losses and make it myself, sans fancy etched labels)
• Re-teach myself how to actually play the drums ;-)
