Space Comprimisation!

[JayCav]

Today i had to move my kit up to my room, to make way for the chrimbo tree, i didnt want it not going to use under my bed, so i thought out this clever little way of saving space, yet having the kit set up (minimalistically) so i can still practice :D

ok, so its not so great, but im still proud of it.

anyone else ever have to compromise on space?

wow you must have an uber high bed...thats a pretty sweet idea...great for practicing grooves and getting focused on snare and hat patterns...setup a ride too...that would be ace..i think i should do that...

[seanman99]

damn how high is ur bed if u can fit a bass under it?

[-Funky monk-]

Holy motha, Cant you rent a studio to put your stuff in

[puppet.master]

ive got a space comprimisation whenever i have a jam so i gotta move my drums everytime

my project soon is to build a bunkbed fram put my bed on the top and desk underneath freeing up lotsa space

i still have factory skins gosh darnit, does it look like i can afford a studio?

and yeh, my bed is abnormally high,it was cut down to fit in the corner, my stairs are below so it rests on a slant.

That's awesome, your bass fitting under the bed is awesome too.

[Talos]

:lol: Dude, thats awesome, I could do that as my bed is very high, its not a bunk but its not a loft but then id need to make room for the desk that rolls out of it.

Nice pedal :) Gottem too :D

[alexmonty12]

That's awesome. my old bed would have been big enough to fit a bass drum, but not this one :(

I think the only space issues that will arise, aren't where more stuff is moving in around my drum kit, but me adding extra stuff to my drum kit.

i <3 ur pedal, good luck on ur space issues, though it looks like u can be pretty creative. maybe try ur 16" tom as a bass :p

Not a bad idea, its the cheap double bass method:lol: Maybe ill try it

[Plan B.]

Haha, I laughed.

That's sweet.

[Janeway]

That would suck if your bed collapsed.

[Killjoy]

^^yah it would...dude u should really think about it you know

[Brokensticks]

That would suck if your bed collapsed.

I can just see it now.

[Jbdrummin4u]

That would suck if you fell out of bed.

[Drum Monkey]

bwahahaha :lol: collapsing bed :p

That's pretty sweet :thumb: So in a week or two¿ when the tree is put at the curb you get your practice space back? Not THAT bad...

haha, that's awesome. I barely have enough space where my kit is... I have to squeeze in my body to get past my ride and back to my throne.

:P

this thread gave me inspiration to get crackin' on groove makin'...so i setup my kit with just a ride, hats, bass (single) and snare...here are some pics...

i used to have my ride on the same side as my hats, but i put it on the other side so i could get more independant with my hands.

my bed collapsing :O that would be bad, as all my toms, cymbals and stands are under the bed too, but i dont think its gonna collapse anytime soon.

notice the makeshift tom i have set up (the bongo), it makes a pretty cool sound, a bit quiet though.

I have a ride between my hi tom and hi-hats and one above my floor tom.

^_^

Dual ride patterns AWAY!!

[Talos]

I trid using the floor tom as a bass but it failed miserably. Still be pretty interesting if my band did a song with the floor tom as the bass. Everyone would be like your a master tuner and id be like yeahhh. I can see it now.....

[slash_bmxer09]

I have space problems as well. I wish I could put my bass under my bed like that. I have to put my kit together everyday, then take it down when I'm done. It dosent bother me because when you play shows, everything goes together really fast.

[crazyguy832]

Bass drums are just really big floor toms, ya know...
