Building a MBS comp 95, starting with just the Deck wheels and i think i have my battery figured out. Also if anyone can help me by letting me know what tools and supplies im going to need or things that will make my build go smoother, that would be amazing! Thanks Guys,

Here’s my starter list, others will probably add more that I didn’t think of but here goes:
- Soldering setup that can reach and maintain a decent heat >300F
- soldering skills (best time to learn is now)
- good hex wrenches, not the free ones that come with stuff
- skate tool (also called a T-tool)
- something to measure things, the more accurate the better
- multimeter
- a helmet and other protective gear

Heya, I live in the mid Hudson area. I have a drivetrain for sale that’ll fit that deck and wheels nicely.

Did you see the post from @fearlesstvn in the good deals thread? $150 for a set of Apex Airs is a crazy good deal.

I’ll take 550 for the kit. Shipping should be inexpensive for you since we’re on the same state

Good to know! Any recommendations on soldering tools? I was debating on building my own battery in a pelican box from 21700s or 3 6s lipos to make a 18s pack, either way I definitely want to get good soldering and spot-welding tools, and a good multi-meter for sure.

going to start making purchasing decisions/ and ordering some parts. I really want to build a pelican battery box with a touch screen/ hud display on the top. or something similar.
Exposed touch screens on rideable vehicles is generally a terrible idea.
It’ll get more scratches and dirt on it than fingers and usage.
