I love vert too.

I took two skateboard wheels - I cut them .. I sanded them down (using a power sander) .. made them true .. then I glued them together using "Liquid Nails #2" - they are rock solid and very very very fast.

101A Durometer.

Its not easy.

After 10 attempts .. I only got 1 pair to show for it.

Its very hard to get two wheels that were made perfect .. then shave them to be true .. then get the bonding process perfect.

Luckily wheels don't cost a lot.

hey seth, no offence but why do you quote a post that first of all, right above yours and 2nd has a huge picture in it. it makes the post really big for no reason and the load times are longer too if you have to load teh pic twice. quoting is ment for post that are old and you are answering to it specificly...not when it's the post above yours. or if you are answering to a specific part of a post then i would recommend doing it.
dont be mad, im just questioning a fact and keeping the board a big more organized would be really great Smile so just keep that in mind the next time Wink
