Esk8.news community charity auction #1 FEB 20 (SERIOUS)

We (@DRI) can throw in a Puck Puck Bruce Remote & a Robogotchi if that helps sweeten the build.

The parts list is starting to come together nicely. Do we know what kind of build we’re trying to do? I might have missed that part of the thread.

I’ll PM him :slightly_smiling_face: I PM’ed him

Yep I’ll get a plan going once I have hands on parts, and I’ll let everyone know!

That would certainly sweeten things! And definitely earn you a ride on @Brenternet’s dildo!

I have the feeling that this is going to depend on the parts that I can pull together. Once I get everything in hand, we can start planning this out properly :grin: Im gonna say right now though, if you really are willing to donate a deck, that’s going to skyrocket the value and desirability of this build :yellow_heart::smiling_face_with_three_hearts::kissing_heart:

Yeah, tomiboi deck (thinking top mount + drop, or maybe no drop bc 90mm wheels :grimacing:) and some new DRI parts would really make this build stand out.

Seems like we’re just missing a battery and assembly.

If any DRI battery kits would be the right size, can also help out with that.

Mike said there are 60ish cells that were donated for this project. If those are suitable, then I will use those.

Youre looking at it :kissing_heart:

I’d feel better about this if the people that made the donations would weigh in since it’s their investment. Otherwise, I’ll send it to @longhairedboy and let him worry about the distribution of the parts.

Great idea! How long do you think it will take for you to get in contact with them individually? Just trying to plan out my work schedule for the next few weeks and want to know where I should plan to slot this build in.

Count me in. When the parts come together, we can look though my collection and see what will work best.

The people that donated goods can post here or PM me. If I don’t hear from a substantial amount of them over the weekend I’ll just send it all to Damon and can decide what to do, it’s his forum after all.

@BenjaminF is your man. I’m not sure we need to waste fossil fuels and time yeah?

Nobody has expressed any objections against sending everything to @BenjaminF. Let’s do a poll to confirm everyone’s OK with that.

Should we let the duck build the board?
  • Absolutely!
  • If needs be…
  • No way! He sucks and builds shitty batteries!

@BenjaminF Love you boo lmao. Skatan made me do it?

Actually, we need the poll to be public, otherwise it makes no sense. Sorry, closed, here it is again.

Should we let the duck build the board?
  • Absolutely!
  • Whatever…
  • No way! He sucks and builds shitty batteries!

This is kinda ridiculous. The first poll shows that a large portion of the community has 100% faith that Ben can complete the build. Why the need for subsequent votes?

I’m sure the people who donated the parts would just love to see it built, rather than parts gathering dust.

I didn’t donate any of those parts, but would be willing to donate some to help bring it to completion. But I feel like this is a big thing. Anything that gets built is better than parts in a drawer.

And I kind-of feel like @BenjaminF may have the bandwidth to make this happen. A lot of us have full plates right now.

Who better than a jobless bum with nothing better to do? Ben is fully qualified and willing to complete the job. Its a no-brainer.

That first poll actually said nothing about who should do the building. I think that Mike just wanted some reassurance this is really what everyone wants.
