I wanted to convert it to electric before she opened it but I knew she’d walk in on me with a pink and gold skateboard and know it was for her

Those mud guards look great! How many miles have you put on them? Are they holding up well?
Here is the video they made. Definitely did some damage.

Thanks! I don’t do miles 
but I’m guessing I have close to 200 km on them and they are holding up well. They also really help a lot keeping the water/mud out of my enclosure and my clothes when roads are wet (which is frequent in the Autumn here).

Awesome, I would love to try and give these a go, are you sharing the stl’s?
Wow that’s crazy. Guess it goes to show when you record for a company, you gotta check all them P’s and Q’s
On one hand, very cool video, other hand, bad move Evolve.

Damn. I know some people hate them but evolve has always been really good to me. Like the only brand pre-build company I can say that about.
Why put that end on the board? So much space for shit to get in there
Because
and also the female side is more difficult to smash if it’s in your pocket and you lean up against something or sit on it.
Another reason is for mounting – you can’t really mount the female version with epoxy because then the epoxy is in the way for the male to plug into it. The male has a sheath that wraps around the body of the female connector.

That’s the best looking epoxy job I’ve done yet. It looks like it’s not even hard 
And it’s so smooooooth
Zero sanding

…but will you?
No way, sanding sucks. It’s only a last resort kind of thing. The worst part of fiberglass.
That actually is fiberglass on the back and you can see it in the hole, but the front is gelcoat only.

Might need a vacuum and a chamber so you can degas that epoxy. The only way it could look better is without the bubbles 
Looks great though, do you apply with a syringe?

Nope, just a toothpick and elbow grease from the bottom of a used dog food tin.
Yeah, gas bubbles are always an issue for me. I did actually pop some of the bigger ones.
I really want to design a 3dp part that lets you flush mount the female end and still let it fit around.
