with those specs, you might want to invest in a very heavy duty double braced snare stand. lol (emphasis on might). and some hearing protection, seriously. post pics up when its done, i'd love to hear that killer.
drumfactorydirect seems to be the go to as far as i can tell. Or worldmax. though Worldmax is not a direct dealer, pretty similar to Lea Hung if not exact in terms of items.
Not too sure how reasonable shipping and imports would be from Pennsylvania where DFD is to your location in Australia so...
