Experience a 24 Hours as an Electric Unicycle Traveler
 
Living a day as an electric monocycle commuter offers a look into the accessibility and performance of this method of travel. Embark on your beginning by powering up your monowheel during the night to ensure a total battery. Begin your ride by stepping onto the one-wheeler, utilizing a support if necessary. Once stable, cycle through your neighborhood lanes, savoring the quickness and velocity of the cycle. Electric monowheels are superb for bypassing gridlock, enabling you to attain your target faster. You can readily maneuver through populated zones and tight streets that autos can't navigate. Reaching at work, you can set your unicycle under your workstation or in a corner, courtesy of its space-saving scale. During your break, take advantage of your unicycle to handle missions or explore adjacent areas. The simplicity of placing and mobility turns it a sensible option for rapid errands. After the office, replenish your one-wheeler if needed and enjoy a gentle journey back home. The planet-friendly element of electric unicycles aids to cutting your carbon emissions, fostering green transportation. Interacting with other cycle users via the web can yield suggestions and common stories, boosting your daily commute. Altogether, journeying with an electric unicycle is not only effective and enjoyable but also an sustainable selection.

Quote from: welshsteve on July 24, 2024, 01:33:00 AMI got a reply from someone called Blake on 27th June. I can't remember when I sent mine, I cannot find it in my sent items so I guess it was done via the webpage.

I think that is Blake from Blakes Drum Shop!  Big on line seller in California. I bought some Roland stuff from him back in the day!

I am after spare piezos for the Trigit rim mounted triggers. Head and rim if you have them? I have emailed Hand In Hand and I did get a reply but not an official answer if they could be supplied or not.

Hi all, Hand in Hand Distribution here.
I just wanted to drop a quick message in here. We have some last remaining spare parts for the original DI5 kit available. Pads, clamps etc, I wanted to check if anyone is after any spare parts and I can sort some pricing out.
Feel free to drop us a message here or send an email: info@handinhand.uk.net.

General 2Box Drumit 3 Forum / Drum Casing Failures (and solu...
Last post by dmlove - July 11, 2024, 02:58:38 PM
Dear all,

My son is a very keen drummer.  He loves his Speedlight kit and plays it pretty much every day.  We have, as a result, had a few issues with casing failures.  On the HiHat, the the internal screw posts ruptured and the lower casing came away.  2Box were very good and replaced this (the first time), but exactly the same thing them happened again with the replacement, and we felt it would be a bit much for them to step up a second time.  With the snare, the internal plastic bracket and clamp fractured meaning that the head itself came away from the frame.

(Image) Broken snare bracket (internal to casing)

I do not share this as any form of slight on the kit - it gets extremely heavy use and, by their very nature, will be prone to fatiguing and cyclic ruptures.  The reason I am sharing this, however, is that I opted to repair both of these failures by redesigning parts for each and I am more than willing to share these fixes if they are useful for anyone else.

For the HiHat:

I opted to design and 3D print 6 external fixings in PLA that would allow me to screw into the underside of the HiHat and into the wall of the lower casing to fix it in place.  I also inserted rubber pads between these to absorb more of the shock and reduce the stress at the points where the screws pass through.  The images here only show screws going into the lower casing, but I added screws into the main body of the HiHat afterwards to complete it.  Seems to be working very well so far.

For the Snare:

This was a little more involved and required a full redesign of the internal clamping system.  I designed a new bracket system to fit the existing internal geometry of the enclosure.  I opted to make this much heavier duty than the original and 3D printed a solid bodied housing that would accommodate the hexagonal mounting bar, the threaded clamp and the existing piezoelectric sensor assembly.  I anchored the whole thing in place with 6 M5 nuts and bolts.  The clamp is absolutely solid and performs outstandingly.  Snare is solid and the wider surface area of the bracket and the spread of fixing points means that the impact forces are far more distributed that with the original design.  Images of the redesigned 3d printed clamp are show below (on its own and mounted in the enclosure).  I have also included an image of the finished bracket attached to the hexagonal mounting bar.

If anyone does run into similar issues with casing, I am more than happy to share the 3D printing files and offer any advice that may be helpful for printing these off and fitting them yourself.  Even if you don't have access to a 3D printer, you may be able to find someone who does (even a local maker space, high school or collage might help).

Anyway, I thought I would share in case this is helpful to anyone.

Kindest regards,
David.

Dear all,

Thanks for insights and apologies for overdue response.  The new card does seem to have solved the problem.  I opened the case, took it out and copied everything on to the faster card using a PC. 

Regards,
David.
