Where did you get that graphic? Looks very cool. Reminds me of Sender Skates.
Not my graphic, @JesseM sent it to me.
Sender definitely popularised the skin and frit thing for sure.

Im really looking forward to pushing on this and tidying up all the motor cables etc, still a few finishing touches to sort out like red anodized bolts for the mounts and other little fiddly bits along those lines. Big props to @glyphiks at FSE for a quick turn around and a top notch job on the skin and frit work on this deck… aiming for an xmas ride which doesn’t give me heaps of time to complete it but I’m hopeful a few late nights will sort it out

If you call your build octopus you’re required by law to add four more motors on it
(It looks realy sexy though)

@rusins I dont rekon they’ll last very long, they dont have a very deep pattern to them and I only got one set to test them… they should last long enough for the glam shoot tho 
Tidying up nicely
I didnt quite make my goal of a ride for xmas. Still a little bit of cable work to do and still to get the radium antisparks installed. So not too far off but still far enough away to be irritating

@rosco Haha, yeah man, still fitting it up so finishing off various bits like that to go still

Loose fitting now complete, awaiting a few parts such as titanium mounting bolts etc and still need the antisparks wired in.
These builds take forever with only a few hours a day with which to further the project between kids and running a bar, there’s precious little time left over.
Amusingly, I cocked up the final shortening of phase wires and sensor wires… that aside. I’m pretty happy how the cable arrangement has worked, needs a few more hours of heat shrink and general tidying up but im at the point where the final internals is the next step.
Annoyingly i cant seem to find colored flanged wheelnuts to suit the 10mm axles and i may need to replace all 4 mounts as they arent long enough to add a belt tensioner with the 78t pulleys but i dont think ill be riding this hard enough off the bat to need them. It can wait.

Tidying up the cables to be ready, annoyingly one motors cables are about 5mm too long so have to rip it out and trim it up. The idea is that when its all connected up (and not on fire) ill put a last large heat shrink over both the phase wires and sensor cables for just that touch extra strength.
One side unheated

Looks dope. I was lazily and just covered mine in glue, but respect the dedication to a perfect board.
Out of curiosity, what bushings are you running on that thing?
@VultureEyes , thats a really good question… they are venom bushings I think from memory, Green rear and red front, they’ll probably get changed out for riptides. I run red rear and blue front on the flux and i love that set-up for that deck, for now I’ll just run with whats on it till the board is running and i can get a feel for it.

Is that bullets and amass connectors on the phase leads?
