DrumIt 5 Hardware / Re: 682 black mesh heads

Hi thanks,

Unfortunately 682drums didn't offer me to send a new made set.
They professionally offered to refund but i'm a bit sad because i really love the feeling of these mesh.
So i ordered a full new set of longer lugs (26mm instead of the orginal 18mm). And while i can now fit and tighten the  mesh heads correctly i have 2 issues :
-The rims are really higher because the mesh head doesn't stretch enough. It's not very conveninent to me as i usually place my toms very horizontally and it's now harder to not touch the rim accidentally.
-The rim zone is not working anymore on any pads (toms or snare). I think the piezo is not in contact anymore with the rim circle because it cannot be tightened enough.

Do you guys have working rim zone with 682drums mesh heads? No issue with the rim height?
Thanks

Quote from: Jago on September 29, 2018, 07:56:35 PMHello I just got some 682 black mesh heads for my kit.  I was wondering if anyone has had a problem putting these heads on.  The snare and kick were fine but the tom heads are so tight I can't even get all the bolts on the rim. I have tried tightening the bolts I can get on hoping the mesh will stretch but no luck I can only get four of the six bolts on the rim.

Hello Jago,

Did you find a solution for your 682drums mesh heads? I just bought a 2Box kit on their website and i'm facing the same issue. Impossible to fit more than one rod on toms because rods are too short and the mesh head doesn't stretch enough..
Thanks!
