I've been around for awhile and always leaned on the fence about
"reworking", as it were.

Yes, the true blue would say polish it up and call it a day.

"You were born with that face..."

However, ( O-Lugs and I predicted this ) the time would come
when it's a question of "now what?"

The level of thought and execution that has been seen lately
on these "restorations" warms my heart.

Green Indeed.

Bravo, Ye Players, Craftsfolk and Hobbyist's...

Technology aside, it's not likely we'll see appreciation
for history like this again.

Play On.

I may be a bit biased in favour of the colour but, what a beautiful drum!!! Great job!

Stedi, you know you need the rest of the matching kit. Just a thought. What a beauty it would be though. . . James
