Members cearleywine Posted February 1, 2010 Members Share Posted February 1, 2010 you can drill holes where the crack ends which may stop spread, but once cracked the tone is changed a lot. Even though a 24" K sounds amazing, I wouldn't pay $150 for a damaged pie. Where is the crack? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members boxofrocks Posted February 1, 2010 Members Share Posted February 1, 2010 I'd buy one with a mouse bite, but not a crack. Half inch though isn't much, something like that I might buy it if it was like 75 bucks, and then drill a small hole to stop spread, ot if it was the edge, maybe cut out the crack (mouse bite) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go on youtube there is this one guy who has had his cymbal welded together and then buffed out. i dunno.[YOUTUBE][/YOUTUBE]i found it for you.
