3D printables for esk8

I made a crossbrace for the E-TOXX boardstand, so you can work on your board upside down.

Infill 20%
5 solid outside layers

Should hold up to 20kg boards if you use two. If your board is heavier, increase the infill.

Oh this is a great idea, also lets you work on street boards that don’t quite fit properly

Good point, didn’t even think of that.

They are also stress tested by my gf by standing on them, so working on them should be no problem.

Really great addition.

Aaaand… it works like a charm.

You’re welcome. Now we need to figure out JST-PH. I’m leaving that one with you guys. Your turn. Good luck. :slight_smile:

I think I have some here still and will give it a go asap.

I was partially joking about that one. It seems extremely challenging if not impossible to use something 3D printed for JST-PH. It works differently from JST-XH. You need to lift the retainers on the housing rather than push the crimps in and that requires a tiny sharp object. I use a very small screwdriver. I can’t think of any good way to make a printed jig for that. Regardless, did I hear “challenge accepted”? :wink:

Yes… I realized this quickly after :sweat_smile:

No take backs though

While at it, the JST-ZH are next level… Same mechanism as the JST-PH, but just smaller…
Tiny flat screwdriver or sewing needles paired with sausage fingers, and a sprinkle of swearing…

I made a pretty universal backlight / brakelight mount for these cheap chinese backlights. Fits most square and hex trucks with some padding, also fits round trucks if you use a bit more rubber padding.

I use one of these brake lights, which is a very snug fit. You need the version with the rubber band for the seat post mount, which you need to remove to glue the back cap into the mount. You could also use a screw, but you’d need to drill a hole through the mount. Glueing with some 2k compound is faster and more secure I think.

Other (cheaper) versions of these kind of lights should also fit, although I haven’t tested them. If not, just cut the rim of the holder for the light.

Print with 100% infill (use less if you dare, I don’t) and you get a rock solid part. Mirror in slicer software if you want 1 on each side. Use M5 bolts and nut to secure.

I can’t help it… This is the most ripply / contoured deck I’ve ever seen… Were this my creation, I’d proudly decorate it as a strip of bacon.

Need really far throw for any night riding above 30kmh, and my idea was for the light to turn with the truck so it shines even farther ahead in turns (Lotta blind corners) and it does huzzah! I’ll put a video in this thread when I have tires mounted, It’s infinitely less impressive on thane’.
