For
DIY electronic-drum builders and mesh-pad modders
Worth noticing
The V30 STL is intentionally preserved as five non-unioned shells; the guide says not to repair or normalize it.

Field notes

The testing section describes a Roland TD-9 with a two-ply mesh head, alongside a 12-inch pad, a DIY pad, and a kick-pad setup. The project reports about 10,000 hits in a durability test of the V30 baseline. Its guide also records a deliberate material limit: RhinoLab TPU 95A HS is the validated reference, while other TPU 95A products are treated as experimental until physically compared.
