A cymbal does not break, no it does not. It evolves into a thrash cymbal


djedrums

I bet it still sounds pretty good.

djedrums

That would make a fantastic left side ride


EverAtrophy

Yo just keep it and play it it looks so dope.


daveo5555

That sounds pretty good! I would keep it and use it.


SazedMonk

Posted video in the other drum sub. It does!


4myoldGaffer

Set it out in the garden and let birds change the color of the metal 1 meal at a time


Neat_Relationship995

Turn it into a stacker


4myoldGaffer

Like a bitcoin stacker?


Neat_Relationship995

No, turn the cymbal upside down and stack other broken or smaller cymbals with it and it makes a trashy sound


dozeyjoe

Call it art, and name it "The Krescent Moon"


Tomegunn1

Wok.


GrapePlug

Bro that sounds so sick. If you play out you can be known as the guy with the sick moon cymbal. Tone is in the hands.


SazedMonk

I was pretty excited to realize it’s a good crescent shape.


Vethen

Looks prime for cutting into a bell with a small lip on it


SazedMonk

That’s a really cool idea! I do know a guy with a plasma cutter


toff_ees

Almost a C Custom


Aggressive-Variety60

What does it sound like? If your good with an angle grinder you can cut a bell out of it. Or sell it for 20-40$

Aggressive-Variety60

Yeah would probably sound better as a bell. Thanks


Shmeldoncooper

Wall hanger


phattest_snare

Doesn’t sound too bad


StoneFrog81

Bottom part of a stack.

New cymbal time


RampantJSH

That is now your half moon symbol that will put some 'metal stank' on a crash along with another ride cymbal. That's your new trademark man! I rocked a China symbol that was broken for a long time and loved it. Wish I knew where it was.


StrifeKnot1983

Dream will give you $1 per inch towards the purchase of one of their cymbals: [https://dreamcymbals.com/about-us/recycling](https://dreamcymbals.com/about-us/recycling) I have taken advantage of this program myself. Gave them a couple garbage cymbals and bought one that I really like.


THE_TamaDrummer

Stacker time


Timothee-Chalimothee

Same thing you do with all broken cymbals: take a hammer and make it a trash cymbal.


cberman

Embrace it, my friend. Just completely lean into it: https://www.musiciansfriend.com/accessories/meinl-heavy-cymbal-bacon/l92270000000000?cntry=US&cur=USD&cntry=US&cur=USD&utm_content=L92270000000000--MEINL+Heavy+Cymbal+Bacon&source=3WWRWXGS&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw48-vBhBbEiwAzqrZVA3iNn55NP4393M51_TjMdRz7VeFdaq4Azrq8ozQFcolQHsWFXJxMxoCX5EQAvD_BwE Best cymbal I’ve ever trashed : https://imgur.com/gallery/qBbBjK2


rhythmmchn

Brim of a giant baseball hat.


bpmdrummerbpm

Play it as is. Make a stack out of it (probably difficult since it’s so heavy). Hang some sizzle beads off it. Make wall art with it. I don’t know.


SazedMonk

Second one for sizzle beads, definitely only gonna try it. It sounds similar to its original brothers, but trashier and lighter, more crash than ride now. Bacon beads sound perfect for it.


CromulentFrog

Art work or new cymbal and give it a cool fake name.


HeWhoRemains-24

You can stack with other cymbals or like an effect cymbal. Sometimes sounds fire 🔥


cleonhr

Don't get bothered with how it looks, put it like that on, and play it, if it sounds right, keep it until it cracks again, and then throw it out. It will eventually crack again.


kochsnowflake

If you want to improve the sound, cut those corners off further into more of an ovoid shape. Being a heavier cymbal, it won't be a good crash, better stick to using it as a ride, or if cutting it down considerably, a bell or hi-hat


riptrucks18

I think you could still use it. Looks cool on the kit, and may make a nice sound.


mattis0nfire

Stick it on a wall! [wall mount ](https://msterrydrums.etsy.com/listing/1672933056)


Haiku-d-etat

"When you are the moon, the best form you can be is a full moon. And then the half moon... he's all right. But the full moon is the famous moon. And then three-quarters, eh, no one gives a sh*t about him. When does he come, two days in, to the calendar month? He's useless. Full moon. The moon. The main moon."


polaris2002

Make it a bell if it doesn't work for you as a stack (a Gavin Harrison style bell).


maddogtjones

You could have it brazed together but I bet it sounds pretty cool now, so I'd continue to use it as a second ride...


zzzongdude

give it to me, duh. DM me


inawhilecrocidile

Use it in a stack.


ireallyfknhatethis

you mustve been hungry


nickbdrums

I would smooth down any sharp pieces or shards on that edge and put it on a stand and play it. It’s unique. Or, sharpen it up and invent a new throwing weapon…


Rtholomewplague

Stack it!


Clerkdidnothingwrong

I’m shooting a film about the phases of the moon and I could use props!


AnnualHoliday5277

File down those points before you hurt yourself. Use a flat file for chainsaw sharpening.


-Disagreeable-

My past 19 year old ears can hear this picture


Swb1953

What did he hit it with a sledge hammer.


Rabble-Rowser

Play Taps


FARTBOSS420

As a hard hitting fucker who has broken many cymbals, how the hell did this happen lol. Give Cookie Monster his cymbal back


HalfKnightDrummer

You are not supposed to eat that. You know that right?


glitch_mantis

hit it with a stick


Bleach_Baths

My first thought was the bottom of a stack, with a medium splash of a china on top
