drum harness & Taiko drums

[cheng]

THey are from two different 3732 sets ... not from one 

thanks again WK! me too...I thought otherwise maybe we speak different English so its clear now...

last question WK, if you have the parts and time, can you compare the sizes of this old half-drum with the newer aboriginal drum and the old anvil base only if its convenient to

[Baron Marshall]

no i meant the drum/pedestal the green animal trainer pedestal is in fact identical to the drum... except that it is cast in olive green plastic.

this part (the drum/pedestal) may still be available

Baron, thanks again!!!
now I see it! (i only looked at the green drawing and it looked different and small but looking at the box photos blown up, I can see they come from the same mould!)

these green pedestals can be sprayed brown if I fail to find those old drums....they do look much wider, being able to accomodate a tiger...now if WK can show us a photo with the drum side-by-side with the newer (maybe much smaller) aboriginal drum...I hope its at least 50% bigger in diameter

We do have communication problems today  Which is the newer aboriginal drum you refer to? because all these drums (the one in 3328, 3569, 3732, and the green one from the circus set) are all from the same mould. They are exactly the same. Or do you perhaps mean this one? 30 62 9470 - Drum top this is actually totally different from the indian ones, smaller, and comprised of two parts. There is an indian one based on this mould too.

cheng, the only drum I have available is in the funpark diorama so I can't measure it, and the other one is still in a sealed box... somewhere in the MIB sets... But yes the aboriginal drum fits in this old indian drum. I doubt I have another free but I'll have a look around.

[skypurr]

I have both the drum (single one) and the clown's drum and harness - I have tried to take photos from different angles...







I don't have a spare indian drum, but the clown's drum and harness is spare as I don't have the drumstick for it and have a 2 complete ones that I use in my circus, so you are very welcome to it cheng if you can use it.
