What are some sources for a mesh material I can use to fit to a Remo 
practice pad after cutting away the mylar. Because of the stick noise 
produced with the original head I'm going to try to replace it with a 
mesh material streched over the pad body and secured with the metal 
ring and sandwich a piezo between layers of 2" diameter foam with the 
top layer in contact with the mesh. Is this going to work?

Comments please before I tear one of these apart.

Thanks, Ken
