Well, this certainly didn’t fit in with my stated goals, but I couldn’t pass it up. I was on Craigslist and saw an ad for a Remo Versatilic practice pad kit for $50. I knew it was a good deal, but a little research told me that it was worth at least twice that. So, at any rate, this should give my build a nice jump start, and if I decide to make mesh-headed pads in the future, I will be able to get my money out of the Remo kit quite easily. The pads will probably trigger better than mesh triggers anyway, especially with my module. However, maybe I’ll make a mesh-headed snare pad to go with the rest of the kit. For that matter, I can also put mesh heads on the Remo pads (example here), if I feel I need to complicate matters; and I usually do. . .
