Thanks both reasonable options.
I think I might add what I consider to be right amount to the board. as I use a guide to get it nice and strait. and the customer doesnt have to mess around the first thing he does.
but sending a few extra stripes on the side is probably a welcomed thing.
So much this. Tried it, donāt like it.
By the way cool board @Schtekarsten 
You know what? Just do like three six downhill, and make it an option when purchasing. Gripped or raw. Could even offer other colors of grip for a premium or something.
This is awesome
Thanks!
I appreciate it!
I just stumbled across the āRide along w/astro Sk82ā video by Mario Chacon again yesterday.
It makes me a little sad that you let go of ground controlā¦
it does seem to have found a good new owner though.
this! Youāre completely right ā people who want a double stack board can choose a flux, bioboard, or lacroix. Itās the single-stack, lightweight DIY board market that has been neglected for so long in Europe. I hope you fill that gap! 
Yeah that is pretty much it!
Iāll do my best!
Looks really good. Please donāt take this the wrong way, aside from deck construction, itās simple and thatās a good thing.
Any issues with reselling evolve tyres?
You look so Swedish, I canāt even handle it.
Oh good timesā¦ Mario and I need to do that again soon, @Linny rode that ride the other week with us. Itās sad to see the board go, but Iāve got a V5 here that needs to be finished up which will take its place.
Hopefully I can get one of your decks!!
youp nop yeah simplicity is a pretty big driving criteria.I have the tools to my disposal to make everything from aluminum hubs to gear drives. But im trying to keep it simple stupid as much as possible. And put in the extra effort on the deck and enclosure which is what im good (okay) at.
20mm belts and 18t pullies works super well for road use I wear out tires faster than I go through belts actually.
ouch good call! yeah I might have to have little chat with evolve. I like the size, and they are ok quality.
Idk itās something about that video. Two great riders ripping around town in a safe ish way being so synced up! With that beautiful landscape, seems like you have such a good time!
Id be honored to.
If you are ever in the area Iāve got boards and bikes for you to do that ride on!
Canāt recommend unless youāve got a lot of time to modify it into working order. Iāve worked with a couple different laser CNC now, this was my least favorite by far.
Iāve got a friend with one, kinda mixed results from the sound of it. Hard to beat the price though- youāre looking at about 13-15k for a decent 1200x900 sized bed and a decently powerful RECI tube, which is the approximate barrier of entry for a production laser setup.
Great board/project @Schtekarsten, gorgeous work! I think youād sell a good number of deck/enclosure combos if you made them available- definitely an area we lack offering in.
ahahah yeah I can imagine! Seems a bit like trying to care, nourish & polish a turd. Not necessarily the worst if you got the time and nerves. I dont.
however itās sole purpose would be to cut out griptape nothing else really.
im trying to figure out what sort of power CO2 laser you need to cut griptape
It would be some very expensive grip tape 
Iād wager a K40 would be powerful enough. Higher power lasers will provide a cleaner edge with less flashing/burn because they can move faster. Lower power = slower movement, but you can also cut twice at a higher speed on most materials.
You should also be aware that grip tape often contains PVC, which releases chlorine gas when it burns- highly toxic. You will need VERY good exhaust & filters on the output.
muchas gracias!
If you had to take a wild guess are diode lasers worth exploring?
yeah I have read about the PVC and grip tape thing. I would have to seal the laser properly add some hepa filters and get a fan + piping to get the fumes outside and likely wait for the fan to exhaust all the air before opening up to collect & swap the finished grip tape.
Or wheely the thing outside and use a mask.
I dont particularly like either option.
im guessing I need a small air blast as well to blow out the flame the laser creates?
I think by the time you got to a powerful enough diode laser cost would be prohibitive.
We actually built a room with a sealed door + a rooftop mounted blower with an 8" inlet that went into our machine, but that was a pretty large CNC and we cut a lot of ABS.
You might consider building a secondary enclosure around it and vent that as well. I just want to stress how important this is- it can cause some serious neurological damage as well as being horrible for your lungs. I had to go through a ton of certifications/training for the first machine we bought and they hammered this home repeatedly, so passing it on.
Yes, this is pretty much standard on every machine for that exact reason. Even my K40 had an airpump, but it was insufficient
Awesome thank you soo much!!!
Had a chat with @DEEIF yesterday and took some measurements. It looks like a decased stormcore should fit. And it actually looks promising to even use a 14s5p with it, will be a tight squeeze though.
Currently working on jigs and guides that can be sent with the battery & enclosure kit so battery assembly wonāt be a royal pain.
