I have some weird tools that I frequently used that are not common in an esk8 toolbox. I thought I’d share some and get you folks to do the same.
Here’s the 1st item…
This thing is awesome, will fill a tire in 1.5 seconds.

Those things are awesome!! I have one similar strapped to my mountain bike for trail fixes!!
You wouldn’t be able to use that on a 5x2 rightttt??

I just used it on a 6x2 6 shooter as a test. You definitely don’t wanna hold the trigger too long.

Just switched to pneumatics recently how concerned should I be about popping a tire (on kit from torqueboards)? Does everyone just carry a spare or slime/refill kit?
Can’t say I use anything non standard tools wise really, Dremel, drill, 3d printer, tape, epoxy, paint all the regular stuff.
I normally use this…

I popped a tire on my first pneumatic rides, after that slimed them and never had another flat, so I would say its a must

Is there a downside to sliming?
Less squish in the tire? Less balanced roll?

I didn’t feel anything, I though that it would vibrate in slow speeds until the slime was spread out, but nothing happened

only downside, except for overfilling and an out of balance sludge rolling in your tires is, no inner-tube patch will ever stick… evAr!

When you need to hold a round hole while you hammer stuff, it’s always the right size

I can’t imagine drinking anything that ranks near MEK or other solvents 
I couldn’t even stand near the table where we were using them on a school project 
How did you clean your mouth out lol? Mouthwash back to back to back?
