I mentioned reflection plate drum trigger design VS the seemingly more popular crossbar-and-cone. I thought I'd share some links related to reflection plate design in case anyone wanted to try one.

That's cool!
One of these days I might try a DIY pad... but with a snare and five toms already, not sure how many more I need. I do like this idea though, it seems it would eliminate hotspots altogether and likely have excellent response across the entire head.
