  • RE: Funwheel X10 fender options

    @scabaa I wouldn’t be able to print them sadly. But there’s probably a bunch of local places that can 3d print on demand :)

    A little around the motor/footpad connector where the nuts seal up against the casing is a good idea too. It’s not super likely to leak but helps stop them becoming a problem later after some use.

    I do have some fender deletes on printables too for the x10/7. Similar to the stock Pint/GT but split due to the rail bend. There’s a flat or curved version on there if you go through my models on there :)

    @loaf That must have been one hell of a tumble to destroy the wrist guards and take you out for a year! Hope you're doing okay now.

  • RE: Funwheel X10 fender options

    @scabaa Hiya ^-^
    Yep that one's me. I printed mine out of PLA+ with 6 walls on a 0.4mm nozzle. Layer height was less than 0.2mm and was surprisingly strong so anything you do beyond that should be more than good enough to hold it in place :)

    For funwheels they're pretty good out of the box but for piece of mine I'd recommend a line of silicone around the boxes just to be safe.

  • RE: Where's Onewheel?

    While chasing the sun last night I had an opportunity to hide the board in a panorama. Good luck!

    It's not super hard but like, I wanted to bring this little game back.

  • RE: Saturday tyre change swearing time

    @wheelwizard "Step 2. Swear at tyre until it comes off" Aha preach! The only tire I didn't have to is the big burris BTG 12x8 😅
    Loving the ride! We need to meetup for a ride at some point. I've re-added Northants back into my usual loops ^-^

    Seconding the tire spoons. I never valued them till I had to pop an enduro off a superflux and may have invented new swears till I caved and printed the spoons to get it off.

  • RE: I was due for another tumble

    I managed to get back out and finish the loop while revisiting what caused me to fall.

    Some kinda shoddy trench filling :/ hard to get a good pic as there were too many cars to take a pic of the actual spot but despite how poorly it came out on camera there was a section towards the edge on the left lane that sunk quite a bit.

    My best guess is I got air in the while then bounced off the lip on the other side and bonked, sending me up off the pads. There’s a white streak after the trenching that must have been my board scraping. What remnants of my knee are long washed away in the rain.

    Bandage off. It's proper mingin under there but healing fine. I'll spare y'all of the picture I took of it freshly peeled back 😅 At least that's one more bit of skin I won't have to shave anymore!

    @Puzz360 I always mess up the left arm too. Just the nature of it being the leading arm lol. Just a ickle wickle graze though this time so no complaints here. Makes me feel like a real skater with all the scrapes 💅 Gotta work on my ragdolling though so I take more superficial damage and less... flesh woundy types.

    @Lemur Yeah I'm pretty lucky it wasn't something like a break. That'd really mess up my ride vibes moving forward. Would tie me down to living vicariously through you all instead.

    @s-leon I'll probably reconsider not having knee pads. Issue is a lot of them I find super uncomfy and really distracting >.>
    I get to peel off the bandaging tomorrow to clean and replace them so get to see the carnage 😅

    Oh! @lia -- Knee pads can be comfortable, easy to put on, and a regular part of life. I'd feel naked without mine!
    Heal fully and well!

    @wheelwizard I bounced back pretty quick thankfully. Went for a little spin earlier but defo feel my body aching a loooooot 😅
    Defo could have been much worse. Helmet once again came in clutch and stopped yet another whack.
