Guys, I wish you’ll find the ultimate upade for this board.
No more Freeboard for me: I had a very bad Freebord accident with multiple fractures on my left ankle last friday.
For the moment I don’t plan to going back ever on this machine, but how knows…
Anyway I’ll follow your progress here, it is still interest me.
Take care, and remember: even with the full protection package you can get badly injured.
No way man !!
How bad is it ? You caught and edge ?
J’espère que ca va… Tu en as pour combien de temps de rétablissement ?
Nothing crazy, on the contrary.
End of battery, last turn at slow sleep ( because of people) I had to bail out and I had a bad landing (I don’t know if I landed on the ground or on the moving board).
Twisted the ankle to the max and I broke all the ankle bones + tibia.
3hrs surgery and continuous pain since (I hope I didn’t catch covid at the hospital).
I musn’t lay the foot on the ground for at least for 6 weeks.
I guess it’s the perfect time to watch the movie Misery ::
You get better and we can do some belly-freeboarding, but best wishes for recovery I’m sure you are strong!
Thanks.
I might be strong, but I’m gonna be 50 years old end of this year. 
Keep up the good work and sorry for the off-topic.
wow that certainly makes you one of the older members of the forum, much respect to you my friend!
I am just waiting to get the 3D printer fired up then I can check my dimensions on the leiftech v2 parts!
I don’t have any BBs so ball bearings from 608 bearings will have to do
Super glad I tried this out tho! Impressed is the least I could say, I damn near want to stand on this thing.
Didn’t make sense to buy one when the rest of it is printed!
I should made a 5045 model motor for fun too, I still have to get the pulley models accurate but then it should look pretty damn done.
I need green filament for the PCB.
So, how did you get it?
With a press, or by beating the hell out of it?
Slipped right out by hand after letting it sit under a led light for a day. There’s lots of grease that leaked out of the bearing I don’t know if that was causing it to get slightly stuck.
??? what lol
Like a heat one? a UV one? Surely not just a light
I think it might have just been too cold when I tried to tug it off the first time. let it evenly heat and it released.
Needs a better finger hold but it works well, an improvement from calipers.
Can you share the file for it? I think I need to calibrate mine. I am having some uneven torque issues.
brushchk v2.STL (1.4 KB)
has a couple of ways you can hold it, what I like is that it is small enough to slide between the brushes without lifting it.
