My 10" tom head cracked again. Just like a 2" split on the top ply. You can still play it and it really isn't even noticeable, but it's the second time it happened. And both times, it was a Remo Pinstripe. The head's like a year old though.

I'm wondering if it's my room... I'm on the third floor, and so it can go from really hot during the day to really cool at night. But I was gonna replace the remo with a new head anyway. I'm gonna go with Aquarian this time, but I'm not sure yet if I want 1 or 2 plies, and if I want coated or clear. Right now I have a 2 ply clear Aquarian head on the 14" tom that sounds pretty good.

^^^ its really not a good idea to put drums in places where the temperature will fluctuate. I'm not sure whether thats why your heads are getting damaged, but its likely that eventually the plys of your shells will start to separate. Something to do with materials expanding when they're hot and contracting when they're cold. Its something like that anyway.

well, I don't really have any other place to put them... heh. It's not that bad, just during the summer the walls all get all hot and trap in the heat, so it can get pretty hot and stuffy (I hate drumming in the summer :mad:). But then at night it cools off and I usually have fans going the whole time.

I also tuned up the 10" tom a little bit the day before it cracked. I guess that in combination with the heat may have caused it.

Nope. I bought them. I've been saving for 6 months. I bought a 21 K Brilliant Crash Ride, and an 18 K Dark Thin Crash. After graduation I'll probably buy the 24 K Light Ride. That is after I buy my mandala :p
