Suitcase Drum Set

 Idea owes to mikereetz on Instructables. On his page he talks about choosing a suitcase, attaching the bass pedal, etc.

All of the drum stuff and hardware is strictly crapola. The snare came from a First Act kit (for kids,) and I painted it green (to be cool.) The stool was a folding kitchen-type deal that I hacked down to fit in the case. Special flair includes a 50-cent cowbell from the junk store and a "ride" redolent of a pie tin which I put a machine screw through and mounted on a 4th-of-July flagpole.

It's about as light to carry around as an electric guitar. Setup time: about 3 minutes.
