Sorry to everyone who didn’t really understand what i wrote
I’ve been sick and English isn’t really my native langauge so the question was formulated half ass’ed
If it looks like a chicken smells like a chicken and tastes like a chicken, its a chicken Also i almost regret my purchase, reason being that i wanted something MBS but ended out cheaping out and tried to save 25 GBP, but imma roll with and see what i can do with the shit i have.
I’m properly gonna try a riser out of just a wooden block and later some Aluminium and theeen if it doesn’t feel that great or doesn’t feel like it’s holding up then i might just go for an adjustable base plate.
Was generally just looking for feedback on the idea of doing it
How will you make the bolts work properly? 30 degrees is a lot, I assume that getting bolts through the truck holes is going to be tricky if going perpendicular through the deck.
Sorry to everyone, didn’t touch the subject for a few days because school comes first, but ended up scrapping the idea after some research and first outcast of designs, reason being the way i would’ve done it, i would’ve risked the wood cracking while riding, and i don’t wanna lose my brain yet.

Let me know, highly interested if it’ll be good enough. My school has a 3d printer which i can use, so i might try it if it goes well for you.
Yeah I’ll give it a go at slow speeds but i would recommend reprinting it in ABS. Mine is in PETG so I’ll let you know how it holds up. I do dislike the fact the STL I found had holes made for M4 instead of M5/ 10-32
It rides really fun, is split angle 65°-35°, I ride it around analog and fuk with it, but it’s soon to be 'lectrified…
but if I ever want to decrease the front truck angle (increase the wedge angle), I’ll fabricate an aluminum riser and drill the mounting bolts thru the riser and deck on an angle, with an x-thingie on top also drilled at the necessary angle
I’m not speaking about an aluminum riser like your PETG one, just a simple angled wedge riser, IMHO they only become problematic when they get over 10-ish degrees because of the bolts and odd angles to get into the deck, but if you get a 35° baseplate, and add a 15° wedge, you can effectively get yourself back to 50° on a 30° angled deck, then if you redrill the holes in the wedge and the deck and the x-thingie you have a pretty solid set-up…
