Honestly, your channel is an absolute dream. Thanks for the inspiration bro. Your channel is f*cking amazing dude! Seeing what you do in every video is so inspiring! THANK YOU!

I really enjoy your videos. I’ve been a cabinetmaker for fifty plus years and a woodworker longer than that. One thing I’ve learned in all that time is that regardless of the age of the Maker we can all learn something from each other. I like your format for recycling skateboards and I think you do a very masterful job of producing your videos. Thank you for sharing your passion with the rest of us. Well done!

Awesome job! An idea to peel off the grip tape would be to bring a sort of oven into wich you could put stacks of boards to warm up and then take out once at time and easly peel off
@byLokie4 жыл бұрын
Davide Zannella I wonder if a sort of oven may too much dry the fibres and adhesive of the whole boards which may promote cracks. I was thinking a iron
@120Livi4 жыл бұрын
Put them out in the sun when you get them. They're all gonna need to be peeled eventually so why not do it when they arrive. That way you'll have a stack of prepped boards whatever the temperature

@DaveDaHunt3R4 жыл бұрын
@@WobyDesign another idea i came up with while watching you peeling is to attach a drill to the wood stick you use to peel, maybe you could build a steel version with an attachment for the drill welded on one side
@heyimamaker4 жыл бұрын
I was thinking of that as well, and a low RPM high torque motor to do the turning, you could just feed the board into it and it would peel it off for you.

I’m at stage 1 of doing something similar. I have an old electric guitar that needs reconditioning and I am going to shave 10mm off the face of the body. Make template (Perspex)for placement of holes and mountings. Then make skateboard top 10mm. Glue to cut down body and shape edge profiles to original. I have some of my sons old boards which makes it personal. I then ate a guitar case with glass lid ( skateboard frame)so it becomes a wall hanging. Use a Perspex scratch plate or maybe pearl.

I've heard of people that live in places that get cold sometimes have trouble with the grip no sticking when they set up a new deck. having doing no testing and have doubt in my head as i write this it may be a better alternative to freeze the adhesive on the grip. you could fit several decks into some like a deep freezer and if it works then you don't have to stand there all day to take off the grips one by one.
