Step 4Random Ideas
Doing some painting on a room in your house or maybe even some drumhead art (hint hint)? One of the best random uses for a beat up drumhead is to act as a paint splatter guard. Put one under your paint can to assure that you don't spill any onto the floor. You can even use another as a palate to mix and hold the paint as you spread it on the brush.
Hold Your Pieces:
Doing some wood work or have pieces sitting around from a project you're working on. Nothing holds screws, nails, or even knex like a drum head.
Umbrella:
It's a simple task to turn an old drumhead into a (fairly ineffective) umbrella. Simply find a pole of some kind and attach a head (kick drum head would work best) using a nail, a screw, glue, staples, etc. Hope you don't mind a little water (and a lot of ridicule).
Logo Stencil:
Want to put a logo on your kick drum head? It can be a tough thing to freehand paint a logo on acrylic, but you can use your old head in two ways. You can cut out the logo you want from the old head, paint it, and glue it onto your current bass drum head, or cut out a stencil from the old head and use it to help paint the logo on the new one.
Dice Rolling Bin:
Doing some dice rolling? No questions asked - just grab and empty drum head and roll away.
Frisbee:
It might not be the best flying disk that money can buy, but it's virtually free at this point, and the possibility of getting hit in the face by a metal ring is good enough motivation to catch it.
