Re: Cymbal Crack!?


Thanks for the pics Butter...although when I did it in the past, I made smaller holes about half that size.

Just to clarify; MY advice was geared toward the IMPRESSION that you wanted to CONTINUE playing on it without the crack growing but, if it means a lot to you, just take it down and make a shrine with flowers, incense and candles and of a course, a photo. If all the cymbals are meaningful, then you'd better take those down too,and add them to your shrine; and I guess you might as well take the drum kit down too; or you could just do what you think your Dad might have wanted you to do. Do you think he would want you to put everything away and baby it in his memory?; or do you think he would have wanted you to ROCK, and take numbers and ask questions later?? That's entirely your call, and there's not a bit of advice that anybody on here should be giving you about this, besides how to fix or stop the crack, which WAS your original question, wasn't it? Duck is right though, you can't fix a crack, but, if the crack is barely visible, and you're NOT going to play on it anymore, or sell it, don't worry about it. The only one that knows it's there is you.
