Re: Bass Drum Port Hole
Speaking from just seeing the holes in the reso skins, not from experience here. About halfway from the edge of the drum to the center of the skin on the top left/right.
I had a drummer friend tell me that if you place your drumskin on the floor and heat up a tin can however wide you want the port to be (4-8 inches/10-20cm) and slowly press it into the skin you'll punch a hole right through. It'll be damn hot though so handle it with a oven mitt or something. As long as your patient you should come out with a perfect circle.
