Could you use the MDF ones to press one from fiberglass with a bracing ply core?
I could do lots of things… i will see where my whims take me
I love how you DIY-ed the mold and the press. So cool!
What’s the purpose of this bump? I can’t remember seeing anything similar on any other deck.
BTW, I had a mold made for this just about a week before you posted your first pic:
Looks like we’ll have twins.
It provides an extra pocket to lock into when you want to shorten your stance. I tend to ride with my back foot on its toes on the toe side, and that little pocket created there should be a reaaallly nice little nook.
A side effect is that it allows a little flex in the centre of the deck. This could be a good thing in the form of relief for the transitions to the nose and tail, or a bad thing in terms of snappy deck
Won’t know until I’ve tried!
Cool! Love the experimenting. I hope we’ll be able to exchange insights on what’s working and what’s not. I should have first prototype decks on hand soon.
Isn’t that just an indentation to allow the screwdriver to access the bolt head?
Ooh possibly. But its not anywhere else so it just looked weird
Definitely dude!
Yes it is

@Pickled_Monkey whats the benefit of 2 smaller reductions instead of one big one when the reductions are this small? Ground clearance?
3 stage actually 1:12, allows for monster torque with shed loads of ground clearance. makes the drive more ‘compact’
hahhahha them wheels look so tiny
Deck is awesome, dood.
Yup, it certainly looks much more “dense” than if there was a single huge sprocket. Looking forward to seeing the project progress.
they need a spacer
Beautiful ride I gotta get me some of those radium things
@Tony_Stark when will the bushing thingys be instock?
Mid July
Mine was on the evolve gtx Platte river bike trail front of comcast building near stadium Denver. 22mph motors seized. My own builds thank God never have. But ouch!. 3 ribs down. One of two or maybe three bad ones. Idk. just stopped crashing. .
