[QUOTE="Robert Watson, post: 9389, member: 38"] I have a drum in my garage at the moment (of totally unknown parentage!) that had been bolted up to a hub, (I would say blindly but I know the perpatrator lurks amongst these lofty walls and I wouldn't want to cast a shadow on his fine reputation!) and brought to me to turn the new linings up to suit. There are I think about 9 substantial cracks in it. 6 of them run through the sprocket mounting holes and through the face of the drum, and others in the same manner except not at a sprocket bolt hole. We replaced it with another of unknown parentage, but one that rings a nice c#. Wondering how fragile it might be I threw it on the concrete floor several times, and yet it remains in one piece. I know it can't be used as a dinner bell, so it off goes to cast iron heaven. Robert [/QUOTE]
