2021 Drum Desk Light

I took an old shell pack that was in disrepair and turned the high tom and medium tom into a desk light for my kids' band director. The floor tom and bass drum are shown too but the end product of the floor tom will be shown in another video. The bass drum got painted and is currently still sitting in the woods. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it yet.
