  Victor S. asked:

  Picked up this sweet lil 20" Slingy - BUT someone tragically installed a Ludwig modular mount. I want it gone and need to fill the existing hole. Anyone have any experience w/ this sort of repair? It doesn't need to look perfect. Oh, and anyone know where I can score a 1 1/2" circle of red sparkle? Better yet, if someone can whip it up, I'll gladly pay w/ paypal or trade of some goodies.Also looking for 20" BD hoop inlay strip. Thanks much!

  a couple of options.. we do these types of repairs in our drum shop often (www.parkwaymusic.com) .One option would be to utilize the existing inch and a half hole and use a different mount ( Gretsch, or standard Ludwig mount) and fill the 3 smaller holes( they will "hide" easier then the large one. The other would be to go ahead and repair the larger one ( along with the mounting screw holes. We find that dowling the holes (as opposed to filling) with wood is a much better means of repair,and "works" better with the shells integrity... tite bond 3 wood glue to secure the dowel, then glue in a cut out "patch to match the finish ( we will use remnants from wrap jobs to patch.. might be difficult to match up the red if it is faded,etc.....good luck!
