Okay. I hope none of you remember my last “build post” it was absolute trash. I had been on here for maybe less than a month and thought i could take myself to the stars. Tl;dr i didn’t understand a thing that was going on. Couple months AND an evolve Gen 2 later, I present to you, ladies and gentlemen of this fine forum, Build Name TBD. Drawing Inspiration from These two builds; @Eboosted Darth Maul @trigger4point7 Build even though this is not complete, we’ve been talking in the DM’s HUGE SHOUT OUT TO @JLabs he’s been the GOAT in helping me figure things out. Will continue to bother him yet.
Some parts started coming in so i’ll update as they do. Estimated completion is Late April/Early May. Some pics…
Got spme 16T 12mm Pulleys from @chaka at ollinboards, looks and feel like really good quality so i’m hyped about that. MBS Wheelsand Zealous Bearings came in, No idea why i got orange wheels but YOLO. I was gonna go for an Ultra Instinct Theme but messed that up with the griptape which i also love. Comparing the deck of the Evolve and the Sector 9 Bintang, i can confirm these two decks are dimensionally identical, so, all terrain is an option if i ever decided to look into it. But yeah, that surprised me too. The clean bamboo makes it look a lot bigger. Quick Mock-up of the deck and wheels. those wheels are huge FYI! but yeah, i thought i liked the grip tape buuuut…ripped it off like 5 hours later. i do spontaneous stuff and it’s unhealthy. Redid the griptape after watching a 5 minute video, first time ever i think i did an above average job, my parents are proud of me. Mockup with the new grip and i now realize i will just be a motorized caution sign. I like it though.
Welp, that’s all for now, but expect more updates once some more hardware and the electronics come in. @psychotiller i’m keeping a close eye on your enclosure
Adios
