how to make a drum set platform?

The risers I've played on varied in size, but about 5'X5' works well. Assemble with 2 1/2" drywall screws using 2'X8' lumber for the outside frame and every 16" inside (like building a stud wall) and cover with 3/4 plywood and then a short nap carpet. The carpet keeps drums & stands from sliding around. Cut hand holds, 2 per side, in the 2x8 outer frame and paint the outer frame flat black. As an option, you may want to drill a couple of extra holes on each side of the frame to allow monitor, mic. and electrical cords to pass through, but you can always modify later to suit your needs. It will take a guy on each corner to move this thing, but it's strong and stable and wo not rattle. Sound guys and musicians hate things on stage that rattle

a free one. Craigslist. Sets start out cheap and simple but to get a kit to "Breath" you have to invest. Stick with the guitar, even though In my opinion I truly believe the drummer holds the band together. and the singers near worthlessness. (just kidding) I play guitar, and have a $2k kit in my studio. I wai on it, but when my brother in law comes. The freakin thing comes ALIVE. Good luck in your decision. Oh and you can wear headphones from your digibox. not from a set.
