SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - Eeyore - 15-02-2012
Ok after seeing this article posted on the 'stance' website canibeat.com I decided that it would be easy to turn my old skateboard into a stanceboard. No reason at all really apart from its something to do... should look decent and.... itll be something different to have next to the car at meets and shows etc.
Examples:

Being at university I cant get any pictures of my skateboard but its been sitting in an outhouse since the week after I bought it in cornwall when I was 12. After sitting for years it pulls heavily to the left and the bearings were never much good anyway so its not great as a skateboard anyway. Dont know if I am sad to see it go or not but living in the countryside and having reasons not to break my bones meant that I never really got into the skating scene...
Anywhoo Dec should be coming down to mine on Saturday the 25th of February to prepare for the Ipswich meet that evening. Plan is to cut out the... what im going to call wheel arches lol and then take a trip to B&Q and get some long bolts so we can bolt the trucks on the top..Then after I guess we will be taking a trip to halfrauds to buy some diablo spray paint so we can spray colour code the board with my car!
Shopping List:
Wheel Bearings
Trucks
Long Bolts + 12 Locking Nuts - B&Q
Diablo Spray Paint - Halfords
Maybe new Wheels - Ebay
At the moment its pretty much just me doing it and Dec helping out and shadowing me around B&Q but I believe he is trying to get hold of an old board off a mate so he can join in with his own!
And for those who say its unrideable... it pretty much is!

Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - declantg - 15-02-2012
Gonna have to grind the bolts down though
If only i still had my stickerbomb book! we could of done the underside
Got some matt black spray in my shed and that i will bring along
EDIT : Will see if i have any long bolts, what size do they need to be?
Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - Eeyore - 15-02-2012
Ive still got my stickerbomb book but im going to try colour code it in diablo to match the car! I reckon we can hacksaw the end of the bolts off and then file it down a bit if youve got a file? I have no idea what length the bolts need to be... 80mm+?
Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - declantg - 15-02-2012
yeah i got a metal file
Will take some tools when i come to yours, will bring my primer and everything aswell Do the bolts need to be a certain width? Got a tonne of nuts laying about

^^ After your profile picture I bet you have! I really dont know width wise tbh... found this if its any help?
Quote:The size is #10-32.
#10 being the bolt size and 32 being the threads per inch, I believe.
You'll need a #10 nut to go with it, but specifically a #10 nut with nylock.
I have looked at the wide longboard wheels but they are all super expensive :/ Going to have to make do with the standard ones unless I can find any cheap. Im not sure how standard wheels will fill the arches and its not as if we can just put spacers on...
Also I was thinking maybe put the trucks in a vice ive got to give a bit of camber... but i dont think that will go well and itll be really hard to get them to be equally cambered. Also itll probably take the paint off the new trucks... anyway we could give it a go with the old trucks and maybe get a polishing wheel on them to make them super shiny!
Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - declantg - 15-02-2012
Will see what i have in my shed!
And you loved my pictures....
Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - padge - 15-02-2012
These look awesome tbh!
Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - 4WayDiablo - 15-02-2012

Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - declantg - 15-02-2012

Speaking with a mate about getting a deck, trucks and wheels later

I have a stickerbombed skateboard in my car. It will be turning into a stance board very soon
Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - mooey65 - 15-02-2012

There is no point! Its just saying hey i did to this board what i did to my car lol. Its pure form over function... Anyway... i need some extras for my car come show time. Was thinking like a colour coded bmx on the roof or something but this should be a good way to start!
Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - Foxy-jim - 16-02-2012
Haha that is class! You should get some stainless curved bits of metal to sit over the wheels as proper arches haha.

I thought about this haha. Ive got my money for the month through now but ive already bought a gti6 inlet manifold, elm blutooth unit, an oil catch tank and silicon tubing. And Ive also got a gti6 exhaust in the works somewhere :/ I reckon If i build it first with what ive got and then I can add all the shiny new parts later in the year so they are nice and new for FCS and pugfest etc lol
Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - Foxy-jim - 16-02-2012
Ok fair enough. They shouldn't cost a lot though!
Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - Eeyore - 16-02-2012
Foxy-jim Wrote:Ok fair enough. They shouldn't cost a lot though!
nope its about £35 but i got my £500 for the month today and im already £120 into it
Got to buy the speedboat and Ive got my MOT next month so got to save!
Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - Foxy-jim - 16-02-2012
Ye I've got my not too. Hoping it will be ok!
Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - 4WayDiablo - 16-02-2012
Not enough camber!!!

Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - declantg - 18-02-2012
just ordered my board
Its on!
Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - declantg - 18-02-2012
Plan for mine;
-Spray the underside of deck lime green
-Trucks will go black or stay silver
-Lowered
-Grip tape removal and then clean up and varnish the wood
-Apply Illest sticker
Sticker is in lime green also.
Cant wait for this
Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - Eeyore - 18-02-2012
Just got a 'slammed' sticker for mine. Going to mount it along one edge. Should look good. We shall see how removing the grip tape goes on yours but getting rid of the sticky stuff might be a problem.
Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - declantg - 18-02-2012
I have removed the tape off a board years ago, a scourer pad will take it clean off
Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - Foxy-jim - 18-02-2012
These best be good! I may make one!
Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - Dum-Dum - 18-02-2012
I might go and build one of these. Got bare stickers here and a skateboard and a spare set of trucks. Might have to get the bernzo out and bend the trucks for some camber.
Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - cwspellowe - 18-02-2012
f*ck, bandwagon or what? I've a plain lazy deck on the way that says "hit the deck" underneath. Comes with 36mm wide wheels but looking at a set of 54mm wide longboard wheels at the mo. And a "GotStance?" sticker to match the one on the windscreen.
Stanceboard stand at FCS? Ahaha

Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - Dum-Dum - 18-02-2012
Oh and for the lads that need to know, Bolts are cheaper out of Homebase than B&Q
Re: SRowells & Declantgs StanceBoard Project - Dum-Dum - 18-02-2012
Oh with camber.

Off to camber some trucks. Want to see if i can get narrower trucks on the front so i can get a tuck and poke look.
