Abstract
Abstract In construction of a snare drum stand having a lower support and an upper center post, four sets of arms are mounted overhead the center post with 90 degrees center angle intervals whilst extending radially outwords. Distant positioning of the radial arms form lugs on the annular brim of a drum allows easy mounting of the drum onto the stand and easy tension adjustment via the lugs.
