Ok how did u accomplish that shaping :hocho:

I used an angle grinder and a random orbital sander with 60/80 grit sand paper.

I assure you it is not perfect the flaps are not identical, i have to touch up some spots but I don’t think I will feel the difference. Next step will be skinning in carbon fiber for strength. It does feel solid under the foot, I can tilt it back and forth by leaning on the flaps and have not hear any cracks yet.

Dude, call them wings :rofl: flaps makes it sound like they are about to fall off!

I think the proper lingo would be gas pedals :call_me_hand: excellent work bro, did you dowel them too?

Believe me, I felt the same. If it’s not worthy by the time I’m finished, may Skatan curse my soul forever.

:sweat_smile: gas pedals does sound a lot better.

I did not use dowels, i had to flatten the area where i put the pedals to get a larger glueing area, result was it was thinner at those spots. I hope CF will add enough strength.
