context_page_description: In music, a traps case or trap case is a piece of luggage used by drummers and other percussionists to transport miscellaneous instruments, stands, and accessories. Traps cases are usually made of vulcanized fibre, molded plastic, or plywood. Typically, a kit drummer's traps case will be the heaviest of the cases when loaded, and is long enough to contain a hi-hat stand without collapsing it, to avoid losing the drummer's adjustment of its height setting.
  A set of cases for transporting a drum kit, for example, will typically consist of one case for the bass drum, one case for the snare drum, one or more for the tom-toms, a case or bag for the cymbals, and one traps case to transport the remainder of the kit, including:
  Cymbal and hi-hat stands
  Floor tom feet
  Tom-tom arms, stands or brackets
  Bass drum pedal
  Drummer's stool
  Drum key
  External mufflers
  Miscellaneous small instruments such as a wood block
  Drumsticks, if not carried in a separate bag
