This vid is about the talented cymbalsmith Craig Lauritsen from Adelaide - a really talented craftsman and nice guy (fwiw I play only his cymbals):

Very good. Thanks.
I've come across Craig before, but don't have any of his cymbals.
I have a few Steve Hubback cymbals, which are a bit more out there, weird.

Wow, what a craft.
Would love to get try out a couple of his larger rides. Do you know if he solely does jazz orientated cymbals or heavier rock ones too?
cheers

Craig will make pretty much anything that you request. I generally describe the diameter / weight / sonic that I'm after and he has hit the mark every time (fyi I have 20 of his cymbals and 1 pair of hats plus another 5 cymbals and 1 pair of hats on order).
