This one did not seem particularly tight or brittle. I’m with you on the one cycle. Used thick 8 mil bag. From what most are saying I am hoping there are no issues. Since this is a reproduction figure it’s a good test subject for our set up. It's great to have everyone's input! JTV

Do not click links, open attachments or take action unless you know the contents are safe] Hi Joel and Ayesha You have to be careful with drums – the hide can split given the differences between materials – the hide head and whatever material the body is made of. You should be ok if you do the standard double wrapping of plastic to reduce fluctuating RH. You can also add some sorbent material (tissue, cotton etc?) to help with this. Also – never put it through a double freeze – it is better to put it through a single freeze for longer. (2 freezes are not recommended for most if any materials). Good luck!

So far, I haven’t seen any harm done to the objects. I haven’t been repeating any freezing cycles though. Will be curious to see what others say as I was recently asking conservation colleagues about this and it was similarly inconclusive.

I looked in The Care of Historic Musical Instruments and there is no real guidance either way. Have any of you done a cold treatment on drums before and what was your takeaway/outcome?
