    Well I made a pair of bc plates today and they are quite sexy.

    Quarter inch thick, 7.5 inchs long, 5 inchs tall, and 4 inchs wide.
    They were made from some metal they had at a place that sells scrap
    metal in Ottawa so they already had a couple holes in them but they are
    still perfect. The guy there even let me do whatever I wanted to them
    to make sure they wouldn't bend and I later put them onto the wheel so
    tight the wheel wouldnt spin then hopped on them a bunch just to be
    totaly sure.

    Anyways here is a picture and if anybody is interested in a pair let me
    know and I can go down to the metal place again on monday or something
    and pick up some more metal. If you are interested they would be about
    20 bucks (Canadian) which is cheap because the metal is useless to them
    because of the holes.

    Also the picture is rather red and dark because I was just using a
    webcam but if you are interested in getting some I will get some real
    pictures up later.

    Thanks!

    Its a 14mm axle and they weigh three pounds for the pair.

    Glad people like them.

    When I originaly got them the guy there was trying to talk me into
    buying them because he thought the design on them would deter me but I
    thought it added some flare without hurting them.

    That is NOT a 14mm axle.

    I remeasured using a more precise method (using an adgustable wrench)
    and they seem to be 12 mm so it would appear that you are correct.
    Either way its close enough for now as I can't go further than ten
    feet.

    Hopefully this week I can pick up some grip tape at a local skate shop
    and then they will be uber sexy.

    Don't forget that I can get some more of these and they can be yours
    for only 20 bucks Canadian plus shipping.
