Wow, looks amazing but I think you should send it to me because I can try and flatten out that shell. Looks like someone took a hammer to it.

Too bad about the tension rod splay. Good thing those receivers float! Beautiful metal though.

Thanks for your kind words. It was a test run with the all copper hardware. The "splay" you speak of is a product of a cell phone camera/lens, and the fact that the drum is not fully assembled (only 8 lugs on the shell, and 8 tension rods, all on the front). Also note that the lugs are not fully tightened as apparent on the right side lug in the pic. But lets focus on the negative...

Did they make this an 8 lugger?
Hmm.. I thought all 6.5x14” were ten luggers that I’ve seen.
