Coolio, headed home where I can use calipers and actual hardware/models for reference. All that mock up was from memory with no outside reference. #therewasanattempt.

No work in AM. Promise to not hunt patrol cars.

I bent my S2 bindings. Fixed.

Someone asked me recently where they could buy one. Does this look like something anyone would sell?

Bioboards/lacroix/trampa would get them going down the right track pretty quick at least but yeah. Not found on store shelves haha.

I’ve got an extra set of YoBis if you need them.

@DEEIF, I’m good, thanks.

@Bobby, if you’re not using them, I could use a less bent up pair.

I decided to play around with these. 40$ for 4 titanium axles ain’t bad.

I lost my Apple Pencil. I might just suck it up and use an old fashioned computer to model the rest of the plates.

My 44 redember riser for lipo shenanigans was looking rough so I gave it an acetone bath with the intent of refinishing it. That was a mistake.

After several evenings, it was patched and epoxied and wrapped in CF for funsies. Why do I need this riser?, because this is stupid:

This is also stupid, but… also, come race me. :kissing_heart:

Was that (formerly) CF? Epoxy I’m used to being chemically stable, but I haven’t played with polyurethane, which is more …reactive

It was a two part resin. “Sharkthane”. Sets in 5 mins, cures in 1-2 hrs.

It’s good until it’s not. Don’t get any ideas about using it to make htd wheel pulleys.

It’s expensive (140$) and unless u hit the streets and find a composite specialist in person, good luck getting it shipped.

Not that I’ll be getting any, but how’s the smell?
UScomposites is my go to for resin

Is there a story here? :sweat_smile: 70D seems hard enough to work, but soft enough to wear pretty quick, so maybe heat and starting to ooze?

Short track? :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: Long track it might be a month or two… maybe three…

I’ll bring 1 pack to a short track and be a good sport about losing hard.

I’m okay with 3rd on mid length.

Wide open long streets with several laps draw me out.

Those 3 links somehow tolerate both lengths. I don’t know how.

No smell. I made remote shells out of it.

I thought it would be inert to acetone post cure. It’s not.

I’m up for this once I get something that won’t top out in 15ft :joy: back up to 45mph should be soon, according to @yelnats8j. If that’s still not enough then I’ll be up at @ahrav gearing soon once the other board gets started, well and finished.
