Can anybody tell me, if I can get replacement legs for my Ludwig Clubdate Floortom, that are longer than the original ones? Or what would be the exact diameter of a Clubdate Floortom leg... I need to get the Floortom higher, since I am too tall to have the Floortom on its original height.. Thanks.
Ludwig Clubdate Floortom legs
They are 3/8" diameter. You can buy round steel rods from a hardware store that are this size and cut your own if needed. I've got one set of legs like this on a kit. They polish up pretty nice too.

Thanks. So 3/8" is 0,9525cm in I'm not not miscalculating.
So any 9,5mm leg would work, right?
Thanks
Yes... 9.5mm is the go...
Cheers

Have 3 factory original longer legs. They came off of a school concert tom, and I believe are around 3" longer..So they did make them.

I know about using steel rods from the hardware store, and I can find springs.
Anyone got a lead on replacement tabs for clubdate floortom brackets?

Thanks for the input guys! Always appreciated!
I am still working out a way to get my Clubdate Floortom a little more "workable" for me. This probably has been discussed before, but does anybody know of any brackets, that also fit for the club dates ? The spring loaded ones are not as stable and flexible as we know.
Modern brackets though always have smaller or not matching hole spacing, and surely I won't drill any extra holes...
I'm thankful for any hints...
Use the modern mount but make up an adapter plate so that you can use the existing holes. You can always reinstall the original mounts and legs if you want to sell it.
