Hi Terry, I have never tried to make my own dampers, hook line and sinker like....but I aggree that small dampers are asking for trouble. I know I know,,,, you can make just about anything work if you dink around enough... but I am a big fan of the three felt piece long damper as well. I have about 15 sets of those dinky little bass damper sets Baldwin (used too ??) sell left over from my brothers stuff. I doubt I will ever use them.
