Sure am, than I will make a carbon fiber top to seal it from the elements.

Small update, still not electric..... but am slowly reinforcing the deck to make it stiff as possible. Ordered some 6K carbon twill, this stuff is incredibly thick compared to the unidirectional carbon I was using previous, pretty sure if I had of used this stuff off the bat this deck would be...

Thanks man! Yea, more than likely it is because the fibers are not sandwiched together perfectly, there are a few areas that had more resin than fiber unfortunately. Am going to screw hardwood strips along the perimeter of the battery space basically boxing it in, and than put two more full...

Yea man sounds good to me, let me know how much you are asking for the larger space cell as well as an email so I can paypal you some money. If you feel confident about the quality you can just get them to ship it straight to me too, if it makes it any easier.

Settled in Australia now, and had some time to find a board for my trailer and set it up. Rode around with a 14 year old kid to test it out and everything held up well, a little interesting to get going with all the extra weight, but once you are moving it is quite easy to push. Will have to get...

Sweeeeet! :mrgreen: Who makes those other hubmotors?

2nd coat of seal. And tomorrow it will be painted white to finish it all off. All in all am pretty happy with how it turned out

Yep, just threads on. Took a 76mm piece of stock and made a duplicate of what is on the end of the truck already (7.92mm shaft with 5/16-24 threads), than flipped it around and drilled and tapped the 5/16-24 threads on the inside to about 30mm deep, than came in after with an 8mm drill bit and...

Thanks torque!

Will be posting all about it when it happens! Made some axle extensions at work today for the truck on my trailer

Me too!

Thank you sir! Yep wanted to wrap the edges to help give as much dimension as possible, for more strength.............unfortunately, some of the resin and carbon wrapped around to the other side onto the grip tape, and is now no good. Thought they sprayed this grip on, turns out it is just...

Well here it is, fresh out of the vacuum bag It is far from perfect cosmetically, and now that I have done this a couple times would do it a lot differently...the biggest thing would be not being in such a rush to get it done! The hand pump worked great actually, just the bag was a pain...

Supplies came in yesterday and immediately started laying fiber, unfortunately did not have a lot of time from getting off work, tell too dark to work to sneak in any pictures of the process, am in a mad rush to get this done before friday. So far everything has been going fairly smoothly...

Interesting! They don't mention what the compound is though, would imagine it would be thane, but never know if it is strictly and an offroad wheel. The rounded contact patch with knobs would be useless on the street.
