Aerodrums and Aered forums

Hey Guys,

just wanted to share my first suuuuper DIY footpedal As I am used to play heel up, I always struggled with the kick. And some neat practice pedal will be a bit expensive for me.
So I masacred some cardboard, grabbed some tape, a piece auf foam and tataa, got some super cheap practice pedal
Shure it has its weak spots, for example slideing around on the floor and the cardboard is too thin. But I think everybody will come up with some improvements

Besides this, I am really diggin aerodrums. Really amazing product!!!

Very nice, thanks for sharing! Would love to see it in action if you have the means to record a short video. I'm curious about how much rebound you get from it.

here is the Vid. Well not really "in action", but I think you can see there is some rebound happening by the underlaying foam.
Of course it has nothing to do with a "real" drumpedal and it´s far from beeing "perfect"

The biggest problem with this approach is this thing is sliding around the floor like hell... and also after a few days of use, it´s getting more and more fragile, because of the thin Cardboard.
But hey its cheap and at some point you can rebuild it with new cardboard.

I am just thinking about maybe visiting the local store to fetch some wooden boards and a little compression spring...maybe
