Fun chemical reaction I discovered while epoxyingā¦
I had super glued the crack just to hold it in basic shape while mixing epoxy. When I applied said epoxy (loctite hysol), the superglue started smoking like crazy with a rapid exothermic reaction.
Yeah it started catalyzing the epoxy immediately and it was solidifying immediately. Chipped it off and started fresh.
@Nomad one time in middle school, my super cool Hollister hemp belt started fraying and I super glued the fray to stop it and it burned a hole in my shirt on the way to school
Yes it is, thanks for poiting it out! Photos were taken in a rush, next time ill double check them. It should be like the normal panel mount. Will arrange a new image.
So @Andy87
Earlier in the day yesterday I did something differentā¦
I put the board in my car and drive to a park to ride a mountain bike specific trail.
It was crazy hardā¦
Narrowā¦ Twisty and rocky as hellā¦
Pictures donāt do it justice.
I had to walk next to my board and pick it up a bunch of timesā¦
And in no time I was drenched in sweat.
But it was kind of fun and definitely a challenge I want to explore moreā¦
The chain broke in the familiar trailer near my houseā¦
And I was able to ride back with just one chain no problemsā¦
This is ABS. Iām actually really surprised by how sturdy it feels. This one is a prototype that I printed to check the fit. I just finished designing it.
