WANTED: Old Drum Sets, Drums & Parts

Grant from Gonville

Do you have a tired or unwanted old drum set that needs saving?

As a retired drummer, my hobby is refreshing tired old drum kits into usable sets; so I can offer them to new drummers for a fraction of the cost of a new set.

Every set is stripped, inspected & cleaned. Wherever possible, the worn, damaged, or missing parts are repaired or replaced. I re-wrap the shells in attractive vinyl or fabric and then reassemble them as refreshed drum sets with a new lease of life.

Ideally, I'm looking for complete (but tired) drum sets, and for a really complete one (5+ drums & 3+ cymbals) I'll pay up to $200.00.

I'll also consider partial drum sets, usable drum kit parts, individual drums, cymbal stands, cymbals, etc. They must be cheap (or free) and within a cost-effective driving distance from Wanganui.

See the before and after shots of what I can achieve - and contact me at 021 447481 if you have anything I might be interested in.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
