I haven’t documented a proper build thus far, so I’m gonna start with this one…
It will be a work in progress, but here is the start…
I purchased the beautiful LY Switchblade cuda deck from @Agressivstreetlamp, @bourbon_norm) along with the enclosure from @eBoosted and battery built by @longhairedboy (12s4p), sealed to the enclosure.
Build specs thus far…
Dual 6374 maytech 190kv
stormecore 60D
Savage1 heatsink
Trucks… Savage1 TKP’S ( ) coming soon to test on this build. (On this build, I will NOT be mounting them “drop though”)
Wheels and pulleys… to start, probably hoyt 111 zoobombs (although green doesn’t match well) with 42T pulleys.
All that said, I started on the enclosure today, and made the cutout for the heatsink. It appears to fit well! Next up, drilling the enclosure holes, and spotface for custom washers. Then installing the threaded inserts
Add a whole bottle of dye to a big pot of hot (but not boiling) water. Some people say you should also add a splash of dish soap or vinegar or something, but I think that’s a bunch of horsecock.
Add wheels.
Wait.
Remove wheels when they are the desired amount of dyed.
I guess on my build the front truck isn’t drop-through either, so makes sense if you’re going urethane. You could try some rubber airless wheels though; with TKP carviness you’re going to want as much grip as you can get. For example
Widened hubs based on the rockstar II’s are gonna happen this weekend for the build. We’ll see how they turn out. . Probably still gonna try running the 111’s to start.
Things are moving along. Dyed the zoobombs, it took two try’s, but they came out very nice the second time! I didn’t like my clearance going drop through, so I bottom mounted the trucks. I wanted a top plate to span the entire cut out of the deck, why not incorporate a loop key and robogotchi GPS into it?
I milled a pocket for an o ring groove to be sealed with a lexan cover. (Hopefully I get reception , I didn’t consult with @DRI on this yet ). Next, I need to make a plate for the front top plate to accept a devaga and lights. Both will get black anodizing. Also need to make the motor mounts, to bolt to the press fit clamps.
Chonk! I’ve always thought it would be awesome to somehow hook up a light in the end of a loop key like that. But the only way i can think of is to use extra pins like with a QS10 or somethin
Phil this is looking fucking awesome so far. I just wanted to let you know that you have just under 6 hours to complete this build so that I can nominate you for BOTY 2021
