left to right:
$1 Roasting Pan, currently being hammered and built into a similar build to the ‘Baking Pan Resophonic’ posted by Wade late 2015, hopefully finished today!
$2 Cast Aluminium serving Spoon & Fork (Tailpieces?)
$25 Stainless Steel Fish Kettle, the same as used in two previous builds, (AGP #74 & AGP #76)
$5 16” Headliner Cymbal (with holes & loose eyelets around the rim?)
$10 14” Paiste (Made in Germany) High Hat Cymbals
Know nothing about Cymbals, when I spied them all I could see (in my mind) was Reso Cones, has anyone used them for this purpose before???
The bottom pic is an 11” or 12” (not sure how they are measured?)$4 Plessey C300L27 by foster Japan Speaker, again know nothing about speakers ie; if it’s a good or bad type??? (or what to use it for)???

"Thanks" Fomhorach, the resonator cover did come to mind when I got it home, had a look on Google to see if I could find some info on it,  Ebay had an almost identical one listed ( 12" 6 Ohm Plessey Foster 300K03 200W Max JAPAN Woofer Speaker Driver RARE) for $80, might go into a speaker cabinet of some sort???????

"Thanks", Jim Morris, never heard the term "Sizzle", makes sense, I figured they were there for that sort of reason, but didn't know if they had something else attached.

"Thanks" the anonymous pick, yup!, good score! I had seen cymbals before in 2nd hand traders stores, but were way too dear for my "Tight Ass Ways"

It was a good day for ya Bro! :-)

I know the speaker is best used as a speaker but I see a resonator cover. I've been looking for a bust speaker about that size just to rip the back off.

Cool finds AGP. We used to call those "sizzle" cymbals because the loose rivets would keep vibrating after the initial hit giving a sizzle effect. Really filled out the sound on slow songs! In lieu of the rivets one drummer I worked with would drape Mardi Gras beads on the cymbal for a similar effect.
