May someone make a thread on how to make your own scooter

[damienhadsell]

well ive seen people make some like cedar and partical.
it doesnt look hard but ive only scooted for 3 months now.
like i can spend up to 100 dollars.
i need for someone to tell me what items and how to put it together.
thanks

try using ur imagination...

think of a deck and put one together...

i was going to make a custom deck, but i think im just going to wait and a pro model soon

 

[DavidMiles47]

if you have 100 bucks just buy two pro models or somethin dude

ya true, making a custom will be a hassle and it might turn out sick but in the end it would be more work and $$ then to just go out and by a pro model. and it would be almost the same thing give or take some dimensions and weight

If you feel like you want to make your own, then just look at a pro model and think of how to enhance it. If not, just get a couple pros.

 

[Mike Montgomery]

if someone else gives you the idea to make a deck then it is practically their deck. think of your own design and make it. so you can take the credit.

wtf is "partical"?

 

[smiles]

partical is a deck made by partical team or something

 

[Chaseme37]

do they have a website anyone can link me to? or at least pictures of their product?

pete pachota is the only person who had made an entire scooter, excluding the brake. Maybe look at his thread to get some ideas...

You need..
Drill
Dremel
Hack saw or jig saw
Pop rivet gun (optional)
Screw driver drill bit

And then you assemble, it's not self explanitory but if you put your mind to it you could make your own deck, but if you gave me like $100 i could make you one.

can you post a pic of this ^^^

 

[Jake ODonnell]

why would someone tell you how to make your own scooter?
the point of it being your own is it being your own.
not someone elses, use your imagination.
create something your own, something original.

can you post a pic of this ^^^

woww, why would he post a picture?

 

[damienhadsell]

..... i dont know how to assemble it duh

 

[idk47]

Are we still doing this?

 

[molewood4]

i want to make a scooter,but i cant b bothered

 

[stukwon-do]

What's up with bolting scooter decks!?!? Why not weld them? As soon as one bolt comes even slightly loose it will rattle and could potentially screw you over! Whereas welding them is secure... Unless you really suck!

 

[damienhadsell]

because then if a part brakes u can pay little money to fix instead of a new scooter
