Wow looks like a tough place to work! Thanks for sharing! Can't seem to find these trucks but when i do I'll grab a set

[@julinop37]

I don't know why but this video was pretty cool

[@sagaberto23]

Excellent illustrative video!!! By the way where the factory is located? And What's it's name?

[@maisonliu]

Beautiful polish🔥🔥🔥

Thanks!

This video is so good. I did not imagine the portion of molten aluminum to be poured by hand 1x1.

[@2HEX]

Glad you like it! I'm sure the pouring will be automated soon!

So cool

[@chadking464]

This is awesome... I was always curious how these were made thanks for the video

Wuaow!! 👍👍

Do they come in 149 and can you post to New Zealand?

[@2HEX]

The Lunar Light II come with an axle width of 8.75". That might work for you. The Lunar Light III have only been made with an axle width of 8" and 8.25". you can find all trucks on worldshop.2hex.com

I know some really good truck and wheels factories, if you want, I could tell you

[@patrickpb3353]

What type of casting is that called ?

[@buck6604]

Chinesium.

[@2HEX]

It's forging. You can see the ram pushing out any air from the molten aluminum. If we had filled the two closed moulds directly from the top, it would have been gravity casting. If we had a gun shooting in the aluminum, so that the ram would not be needed, it would be die casting.

[@2HEX]

@@buck6604 Aluminum, you could never use Chinesium on skateboard trucks.

[@RobyMontes22]

@@buck6604 that's funny. My friend has used that term before with Chinese bearings.

[@fotobread]

@@2HEX Isnt this die casting?
