    I make skate frames.


    They are cut from solid 6061 (1.5"x3"x17"). The final result is 245g with walls that are 3mm thick. The design is special because it has a brake system built into the race skate frame.

    The funny thing is a few years ago I had this as an idea and in a sense it was the idea that got me started with the CNC bug.

    It's the first part I ever made and it was A LOT of work but it was also a lot of fun.

    An idea that is not dangerous is unworthy of being called an idea at all, and Consistency is the last refuge of the unimaginative.
