"Dave is an excellent teacher and guide in all things cymbals.
He’s completely open to share all of his hard-fought wisdom and experience and my training with him has opened many doors creatively and for my business.
I’ve found myself more inspired than ever to dig into this incredible artform and Dave is a big part of that."
Timothy Roberts
Here's an example video from my Patreon post feed, discussing my thinking on how to prepare hammers for cymbal work.
"I Highly recommend Dave as a guide for anyone who wants to explore and study everything about making cymbals.
Very professional and very patient, he accompanied me from the beginning to the final product, while answering all of my questions."
