  1. My friend at school said that he might be able to make BC wheel plates
    for me in metals class.

    He said that they have Steel that he can use.

    Does anyone have plans and measurements for plates? My axle is 14mm.

    Thanks- Nathan 😄

  2. Also It would be nice if someone had a drawing with measurements and
    everything if you have one 🙂

  11. You're going to want the plates to be a large and as light as possible
    🙂

    I know that the bedford plates (which from what I know about BC wheels
    are the most recommended) are almost the full sole of my size 9 shoe.
    You'll want the axle drilled in the plates just above where your shoe
    top is so that you can 'hook into' the axle bolts for stability.

    Check out what's on UDC to see the basic design of a bc plate.

    also I'd recommend investing in some grip tape to keep your feet from
    sliding all over the place. Worked wonders on my homemade plates.

  14. If you want it light, build it like this.

    Umm . . . this is the easiest, cheapest, lightest, quickest way to make
    them.

    nobody knows what happened to that boy after that.-Nutcracker

    i know. he was kidnapped by aliens, learnt their ways, stole the
    biggest ship he could, travelled back in time by mistake and crashed
    the plane on the earth surface. he was the one who killed the
    dinosaurs. -ivan
