Farwell army cots...
Assembled two old army cots to make sure they were OK. Sold them this morning. They make good drums... 59,70,27,0,B
Assembled two old army cots someone gave me years ago so I could check them out before selling them. Had a beast of a time putting them together - the canvas has to be stretched really tight. Found a YouTube video that showed me the trick (do a search for how to assemble an army cot). Turns out they make good drums. Baila Mi Cumbria by Jimmy Fontanez / Media Right Productions.

I am amazed at how quickly you are able to sell things in the desert. Do you advertise?
ReplyDeleteI post stuff for sale on Facebook and it usually sells quickly to local folks.
ReplyDeleteSome pretty nice percussion instruments! :)
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing out there. So something is better than nothing.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your reply. Since I do not do Facebook I was not familiar with that option.
