project: custom metalcores is over =[ update on p.38

[Eric Magray]

bowl idea??


k...well i redrew it. tell me what yous think now

got rid of fin now its a bump. also made the whole core thinner for less weight.

 

[Eric Magray]

bump. someone post something!

 

[Derek Scootz]

but wont that make it weaker and more prone to bending?

 

[Hep Greg]

that wont absorb shock as well. im telling you, make it like that, but squared off.

nah itll still be like 5-6mm think maybe thicker

i dont get what you mean by squaring it off. like just make it a square instead of a bump?

Who's going to pay for the production of them? They look good, i hope everything goes according to plan.

 

[Eric Magray]

yea i was wondering that too haha. but i think zak said skates.com, am i right?

if you want a better pic ill get it

 

[briflip]

is there anything i can do to help just wanna make the process go a lil faster

 

[chrisisme]

if you want a better pic ill get it

the grip of the urethane looks like it will ASPLODE

 

[Eric Magray]

i like that idea but like greg says itll be hard to machine

 

[Alex.Peasley]

simple.

 

[Steezeman]

I like the idea of metal going up on the sides of the urethane, I think that'd work well.

 

[Hep Greg]

too expensive to produce. the machining will be complicated.

 

[Big L]

why dont you just copy the micro metal cores?

 

[Hep Greg]

because the bearing spaces ovalize, and we're trying to design a wheel thats cheaper and better.

 

[Steezeman]

Greatest idea ever-make the lips like those on a bmx bike.

 

[Derek Scootz]

whats the cost per wheel/pair gonna be?

 

[Hep Greg]

dude we dont even have a prototype, let alone a set design yet lol. dont worry about the cost just yet.
