Let's see your POV/ Driver's seat pics

Not a great image, and the layout has changed since. Will get an updated one asap :)

Stool recently broke though, so that's not fun -.-

Now THAT is a kit I could get into.

I've tried to get a symmetrical layout done on mine but without a rack and in a confined space it's nigh-on impossible (for me anywho).

Thanks man, I appreciate it. It actually takes up less space than it seems. The carpet below it is 5' (152cm) Wide x 8' (244cm) Long. The kit hangs off sightly in both directions, but considering the number of drums and cymbals, it's quite compact. The rack really saves TONS of space compared to how many cymbal stands I was starting to acquire. Really it just comes down to investing in the rack which was expensive.

Yeah, I'm currently saving for one, but it isn't easy on a low income. Ah well, once done...
 
Updated pic of mine!

Slightly more symmetrical but still missing one or two of my toms. That's partially because of lack of space and lack of rack.

My drum room is about 2.5mx2.5m so yeah.

In playable order L>R:

14" Stagg DH crash
13" black rack tom
8" Stagg SH splash
LP jam block
13" white rack tom
10" Stagg SH splash with a 8.5" Stagg DH bell on top
Mapex Falcon slave pedal
14" Stagg SH hats
14" black snare
12" black rack tom
Generic cowbell
16" Stagg DH crash
8" white rack tom
Mapex Falcon master pedal on a 22" black bass
21" Pearl Wild500 ride
18" Stagg SH crash
14" black floor tom
16" Stagg SH china
16" white floor tom

Kit is Mapex Horizon, stands are a mix of Mapex Tornado and 900S, with a Gibraltar cymbal arm holding my china. Other hardware is all Mapex 900S. Heads are Evans Onyx, and Remo Tattoo.

Future changes: rack first, then heads. In the far flung future possibly a kit change, but that comes after I've moved and got more room.
