Of course...you need something to roll on.

In my video, i used a coleman water chiller holder thingy...don't use this...you need something very hard, that won't bend under pressure.

The best solution is ABS or PVC pipe...It will run ya about 10-13 bucks at home depot...but definatley worth it, great stuff.

I find that anything in between 3 3/4 to 4 3/4 inches in diameter work well.

One thing you nead to remember is that the longer your board is, the bigger diamter tube you need...

Lastly, you want the roller to be cut slightly shorter than the acutal board itself. So let's say, if your board was 1 1/2 feet wide, you would want a 1 1/4 foot roller.

I have 3 sizes, for 3 different boards, but I like to play around with the rollers for a challenge.




That is pretty much it. Go build a fun toy, but remember to stay safe but still build cool, stuff....

It's gettin late, I've got school tomorrow
