@ninTHIENdo
This is the one photo I could take without setting everything up like a crazy person haha

The plush collection is worse

Love love love

This is really awesome. Just looking at this, I wonder could you put the stiffeners on the outside? I can see debris getting caught inside there on the straight pieces. If it was smooth on the wheel side and the beams were on the outside I think it’d be better. Any debris entering in there would be more likely to just exit out the back instead of getting caught-up inside

@Sender Skates

OMG that looks freaking amazing

yelnats8j · March 8, 2019, 3:22am

Did you get a 2nd one skinned?

Sender · March 8, 2019, 5:11am

This is his tester deck from what I understand.

He wanted it stiffened, so 2 layers of 6oz CF on bottom.

He traded me an awesome used Landyatchz wolfshark and a Landyatchz switch (?)

I couldn’t resist adding the leftover of his over fabric from his hummie deck on top. Wanted it different than the other one, so we decided on mostly green and a little purple glass frit.

My plan is to paint the “hide edge” lime green as well. Or just black. @b264 thoughts?

b264 · March 8, 2019, 5:44am

Yes; I traded a LY Wolfshark and a LY Switch 40 for some skinning work

b264 · March 8, 2019, 5:45am

Lime green is good with me

Battosaii · March 8, 2019, 2:33pm

I’d love to experiment with epoxying cloth to the deck. I’d assume you need a cloth with a high resolution print cause the stuff I’ve seen at Walmart wouldn’t look good on a board. Where do you buy the clothes?

yelnats8j · March 8, 2019, 2:58pm

Im preatty sure he uses satin from Spoonflower.
Correct me if im wrong tho.

Dude I want to buy an ender 3 so bad they seem like the best bang for the buck when it comes to 3d printing.

Any tips you want to share? I want to print my pulleys like @longhairedboy

Venom121212 · March 8, 2019, 8:28pm

I have all the tips! You can find one for around $180 shipped on ebay. Don’t go for the pro version though. The glass plate upgrade from amazon is $16-21 and does the job. I have a pre-written file of suggested settings that I have tweaked and send it to anyone who I find out buys the ender 3 haha

Battosaii · March 8, 2019, 8:49pm

It’s at $175 right now on gear best, but dude for under 200 it’s so worth it.

Is the glass bed worth it? And yes I’d love those files.

mmaner · March 8, 2019, 9:46pm

Glass and PEI for the win.

Dareno · March 8, 2019, 11:33pm

I love this little chunky monkey.

b264 · March 9, 2019, 2:20am

It’s been upgraded to 110mm… on a 30.43" deck… and it’s super fun

Dareno · March 9, 2019, 2:21am

I reckon it would kill me. Imagining a back flip first run lol

b264 · March 9, 2019, 2:24am

If you don’t know what you’re doing, the first thing that happens when you hit the throttle is the front wheels lift up

You have to lean forward when you throttle up

Dareno · March 9, 2019, 2:45am

I really want to give an 80’s style deck a go. I spent my early life on one of those things. I know you won’t agree but I would go hubs for mine. This could actually be a thing. I have everything bar a bms and enclosure. Actually I do have an old fiik enclosure that I could re purpose.

You know I’m calling it Brian don’t you
