Cut the Wood and Screw the PVC In.

Step 3: Cut the Wood and Screw the PVC In.

First line the wood up with your rollers so they are even and mark in 3 spots where you want to put the wheels on each piece of wood, add 6 inches to each side of those and mark that off. Don't screw within those marks because that is where the wheels are going to roll. Place the PVC on the wood in the center with the wood laying flat. Countersink if you can then screw in. I put in 6 screws on each piece of wood and it is extremely sturdy.

I'm confused. Where did the rollers come from? They are not mentioned in the parts needed. Is there something assumed here that should be explained?

I *think* he purchased standard cycling rollers and then added the PVC slides on the site. So, still expensive :(

i think youre right. theres no real benefit from this unless you already have spent the dough on the frame and rollers already.

There are plenty of 'make your own rollers' guides out there. Try this one: http://www.instructables.com/id/DIY-Bike-Rollers/

PS: I know I'm late to the party, but I wanted the link here for anyone who got here from Google and didn't notice it already.
