Tiny correction to the part about cymbal alloys: the Paiste Signature cymbal displayed above “B8” isn’t a B8 cymbal, Paiste’s signature alloy is approximately a B15 mixture, so it’s approximately 85% copper and 15% tin with tiny amounts of other metals. Then the Paiste 2002 cymbal displayed above “B12” is actually a B8 cymbal. A cymbal line that actually uses B12 alloy is Meinl Pure Alloy

As some have pointed out, Lance Campeau makes or used to make stainless steel cymbals. As an aside, the Sabian Quiet Tone, Evans dB One and Trick Drums low-volume cymbals are all made from stainless steel. Wuhan's Ora low-volume cymbals are B20. And, the Zildjian L80s are "proprietary" alloy.

Am I the only one who thought the wu-blank actually sounded really good? Somewhere between a crash ride and a bell. I would grip it into something like a hihat clutch and then hook that into a power drill to make a makeshift lathe. Then just rub the edges with some sandpaper or a file and make it nice and smooth so it doesn't chew up the sticks.

Nobody's going to buy this thing." Then they patiently wait until one gets ordered on their website.

I strongly recommend Lance Campeau's "The Cymbal Project" series for info on creating your own cymbals. He details his homemade lathe, lathing techniques, different types of anvils, stumps and hammers, hammering patterns, finishing techniques (though he never details the ones that involve dangerous chemicals) and even fx cymbal making. He has a few videos where he works from blanks. I own an fx splash he made, back from when he used to sell cymbals on reverb.

Minor point: You showed a Paiste Signature line cymbal as B8 - in point of fact, they're B15. The 2002 crash you labeled as B12 is actually B8. To my knowledge, Paiste doesn't make B12 cymbals, but Meinl does - their Classic Custom and Pure Alloy lines I believe are all B12.

There are small Chinese hand-crash cymbals, rather similar to the little 4" ones, with big bells and flattish bow that curls up a little at edge, you get that cavity resonance effect as they reach close to closing shut. I think they are mainly used in traditional Chinese musical theatre, i have a couple i found cheap, and they came from a wonderful Chinese musical import shop in Covent Garden, London, called Raymond Man Music (sadly no longer there, he retired and it closed when property developers grabbed the building), this shop had the best, huge range of traditional cymbals, bells, gongs, and wind and string instruments from China that i ever saw anywhere. Also, Tibetan monastery hand-crash cymbal pairs have a similar style, typically around 16-17 inches, i imagine they got the idea of using these from neighbouring China. Very big deep bells, so the closing resonance effect is very pronounced. These would be worth checking out in a future video.

Check out Dream Cymbals Dark Matter series Rides, these are thin unlathed rides, relatively flat bow and snaller bell, with an ultra deep stick response and wash. They come in 18, 20, 22, if i remember, i got a 20 with a slight edge crack which i scalloped, couldn't have afforded it otherwise. Darkest cymbal i've heard, and dark colour too, sounds interesting. Another strange one, a Pearl Wild-900 20 ride. Unlathed, thick, looks like Pearl decided they needed to compete with the Paiste Rude series as it looks similar, but sound is very different quite high pitched and clangy , a rather unique tone. So i decided it was unusual enough i should keep it (i got it for almost nothing)-- but i ever used it for a gig yet. I'd like to say, David, you are very responsive to both the sound and feel of the music style, and of any instrument you happen to be playing on, and come up with interesting and diverse drum grooves to match, alway interesting and a great fit. Some drummers just play drums, but you really play the music-- Respect!
