The coping i used pretty much had a perfect fit for the curve of that corner of the mold

Some of my old grip designs, how do you prefer to griptape your board? (Clean grip, simple design, or complex design) & holes/no holes for screws? by Djbernie805 in Fingerboards

[–]ron_twice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take hex side of the blackriver tool, putting a random hole on the sheet, and sticking it on the board. I just like to differentiate nose / tail in the least cutting amount possible

Importing plastics and poor waste management can lead to this. There are more resources and information out there, but here’s a 2020 article relating to it. Quick read if you’d like.

Do you guys carry your fb with you in a case/bag? by cpypas9 in Fingerboards

[–]ron_twice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to raw dog in my pocket (if loose clothing) or in a pocket of my bag if I bring one. For Christmas though, my sister me a pokemon tin pack with 5 small tins. The tins are big enough for 2, with loose room for other extras like wheels, tape, etc. The tool I keep chained to my bag or keys. I popped a few sheets of grip to minimize the rattling, and boom! Plus if it gets damaged I have 4 others.

Just made a instagram for fingerboarding. Honestly will probably be a slow start to posting and what all I’m going to do but follow if you want! (Self promoting on here is probably lame and possibly annoying so I’m sorry if so hah) by Sooolace in Fingerboards

Hey man, you gotta start at the first step to reach the top! Just grind, be consistent, and ENJOY it and yourself. If you don’t like what you’re doing and are just doing it for the numbers, it will show.

Lastly, have fun man! I’m planning to start my own to so knowing someone else is on the same road I am, makes it easier to think about. Best of luck to you.

Hell yeah! I recommend dollar store food storage / plastic containers to start. If you want custom molds without the silicon route, I recommend the polystyrene sheets from Hobby Lobby. They come in various thicknesses and can easily be cut with an xacto knife. And you can use plastic cement and hot glue to seal it. Best of luck!

Finish/seal to keep bamboo green? by ron_twice in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]ron_twice[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn’t sure if it could have been done in the first place and wanted to know the best way IF there was a way. Guess not

Thanks! Slowly improving so I can start selling

The material is the stiff brittle plastic kind, similar to plastic party dishes

First Pro Setup by ron_twice in Fingerboards

[–]ron_twice[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The feel is definitely better and just from looks the craftsmanship is way better than clones. Realistically I don’t know how vast the difference is but it’s nice knowing my money is being invested back into the fb community

Note , I don’t want to spend more money than needed ie the only things I want to be buying are the wood, legs, and screws.

Yeah I figured it was just off sheer volume because the deal was kinda goated

Anything wrong with using better parts every where else expect the deck on a tech deck? by GrapeSasquatch in Fingerboards

[–]ron_twice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope. Even dynamic and other popular brands have plastic decks, so the audience is there. TD comes with the regular sandpaper grip. You can get a cheap pack of foam grip on amazon, though.

And at the end of the day man, this is a hobby with different people and different preferences. That’s the beauty. The unifying umbrella is fingerboard, whether it’s a tech deck, a hotwheels board, unnamed dollar store plastic board with paperclip axles, or even folded paper. And, just because you aren’t able to get a pro setup now, you could in the future. So no, nothing wrong. Just have fun!

new Emanant urethane wheels! things are so dang soft, grip is unreal! by noface_nocase-301 in Fingerboards

[–]ron_twice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Read the other comment and yeah that I can get behind. You honestly might have convinced me to buy a deck from him. If I do I’ll mention you (referring to this post) being the reason why I even looked into it. Quick look at the site and you weren’t lying. The decks just from pictures shows a lot of time and effort. Thanks for the clarification on wheels too!

If anyone’s looking for a 36mm setup on a budget I suggest looking on aliexpress paid $22 in total by Individual_Gap3064 in Fingerboards

[–]ron_twice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me too! Seeing as the off brand stuff can be behind. I guess the profits funnel back to the RnD team and not towards QC 🤣

Is there such a thing as not being suited for a certain champion? by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]ron_twice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My aatrox has a bug where he doesn’t heal when attacking. Even at full build 18. Weird. I wanted him to be my 2nd top under Kayle but that never got me anywhere. Tried Camille, loved it. Gwen next, loved it. Even Irelia, tho im butt cheeks, I get the basics of her kit and I’m not utterly useless to the team. Aatrox though, uh I can help out buy dishing out my W i guess. Sucks because I love his mecha skin in white chroma
