Correct. If it wasn't possible to store it somewhere else, it would be best to leave it in the corner, on the ground.Not really the girl's fault. That's on whoever stacked those drums there.
yeah, what has happened has happened; getting angry or worse yet blaming or even firing someone over things like these is just stacking losses upon losses at that pointthings like this are part of the cost of training, both for the trainee and the business. when you take on a newbie you're factoring in that a couple things are gonna get broken or ruined as they get themselves up to speed.
Chapter 20Did they even kiss before? I can't remember.
I'm not even a drum maker and this sent shivers down my spine. That's a very fast way to go bankrupt. The drums are made from a hollowed out log. If you put it on the ground the end grain is going to soak up moisture rapidly.Correct. If it wasn't possible to store it somewhere else, it would be best to leave it in the corner, on the ground.
Isn't there an option to place it at ground level on top of something that prevents moisture?

I use little spacers in a jiffy. That's what I had to do when I bought out a retired harpsichord maker's stash of soundboards. They were huge and I had nowhere to put them. But it's not ideal. Airflow is important. It takes a very long time (3-5 years) to air dry timber for instruments. We want both even drying and climatisation if possible. Kiln drying is not suitable as the heat changes the structure of the wood. On one piece drum bodies it would just start to check or even break.Isn't there an option to place it at ground level on top of something that prevents moisture?
