What did you use?

I made this really slow lathe for my wife to do acrylic pouring on cups:

And considered putting my motor axles in and brushing in a viscous epoxy.

I worried about getting the magnets covered though and wasn’t sure what a thin film of epoxy might affect.

It’s West System 650 epoxy with System Three Silica Thickener in some places and a custom machined 53.75mm⌀ insert that I slathered with vegetable oil. It’s 1.2mm bigger than the stator and fits lightly-snug in a 63xx rotor that hasn’t been hardened. It’s difficult, because you have to turn the insert a couple times during the curing process to keep it un-stuck from the epoxy, and that’s being covered in vegetable oil also.

A slow-lathe turner thingy would so extremely useful for me. Surprised I haven’t made one. Not enough space, if I had space for that, I’d have space for spot-welding equipment :rofl:

I’ve been thinking about using a THICC balloon/condom, (ribbed for her pleasure) and using some expanding foam to make it conform to the magnets…

Epoxy…? Isn’t that kinda risky to make a board out of?

Don’t know Bro. That’s what he using? But there are other ton of manufacturers who had similar building techniques applying diverse methods for glossyness… 1166 Longboards, 313 Skateboards, Antidote Longboards, etc…

It looks like bits of wood cast in a block of epoxy, like a river table…I am not by any means an expert but it seems like a weak point

It’s fucking cool though, I want to make one so bad

Wood glue is stronger than most of the woods it goes on. I think properly applied epoxy would be fine given how porous wood normally is.

Yeah, that thing is a cream dream. I used to think this was cool:

But now want orange one.

I’m liking ALMOST everything about Orange one…
Need more wheelbase, shooting for 42"
I don’t know about the gaspedals, Probably design it with progressive concave or maybe simple radial concave
I’d like more drop… I need about and Inch (yeah, that’s what she said…)
and about an 1" of rocker, (camber front to back) to aid in torsional rigidity…
concave top, flat bottom with wire channels between the stiffening spars so I can make simple bullet-proof enclosure…

Honestly I’ve been beating my head against reality trying to make a alum. monocoque esk8 race-board… this is almost there!

off to Fusion I go…
@surfnacho If’n I can get you the shape I want, can you CNC me a wood mold to press this against?
