I ordered another Bannerot love seat deck today. I love this shape and plan on starting a stack of them whenever money permits.

2 boards off Ambush - a WKND and one of their shop boards. Managed to flip 2 Element boards I got during their sale a few months back which covered the cost of shipping and soft goods I got, great price but there was no way I was going to ride a Nyjah deck in public.

Have you had the magnesium baseplates on ice or just scooped them up?

Was thinking of grabbing one but it could cost me close to $500 just to get it shipped to Asia. There was a video which said the bolt which locks the rotating mechanism gets bent pretty easily, you may want to look at getting a replacement bolt.

Honestly, if you go to any local fabrication/welding shop they will probably build you a rail or metal box for the right amount of money. A lot of Fab shops will do small commission work, or at least one of the welders could hook you up for a good price. $500 is a lot, but I completely understand the convenience of getting a transforming box/rail.
That's exactly what that company does, it looks like it's just a guy that knows how to weld and made some good contacts and a website.
I was going to contact some local plastics fabrication shops around my area to see if they have any scrap or cheap plastic sheets to make a butter bench.

^^ I'm in it for the trans-formative aspects, specifically the bench to flat bar.

I don't doubt a local shop could build one or the other but the cost goes up surely with all the design and intricacies of making such a thing.

I'll get my monies worth I think.

I don’t think you could get that made for much cheaper than $500 tbh.

I’m most curious to see how it holds up, and if it stays in place when skating it. Looks hella fun

It's $550 including shipping plus I live in a tiny apartment with no garage or storage space. Space aside welding and building services are pricey in Singapore which is an island city. Welding is a cottage and dying industry since we import everything and raw materials cost a bomb here too.

Decided to splurge a bit since I don't have much else to do.

Got my first Madness deck, which is gorgeous and feels really well made. I also got some thin rails for it too, but I'm going to wait a bit before putting them on.

Also got the 54mm 78A Ricta Clouds, plus a couple hats.

For reference i got a 6 foot by 16 inch bar made at a fab shop for 80 bucks.

Does it transform into a bench?

Does it have multiple height adjustments?

Can you angle it?

Is both a round and flat bar?

If you got all that for $80 from a local, let us know who and where the shop is.

Went crazy over the weekend! Got the workshop Fred gall reissue, 2 quasi Bobby de decks, both pairs of the dc x bronze Lukodas and both the t’s. Had a bunch of promo codes and a $60 credit for the dc store so it wasnt too bad! Will post pics when it all gets here if my wife doesn’t murder me first

bought shit I didn't need.
I always try a bunch of wheels only the end up back on bones. currently riding wreck 83bs, which feel a little softer but are growing on me. Wasn't expecting to see these autobahn the shop so I grabbed them. I won't skate them for a while. New hardware cause my bolts were looking a little scruffy and mismatch

I don't know how your locals are doing, but this one claims to be doing alright in corona. Said his main problem is he can't keep the cheaper stuff in stock.

9” shop deck. Excited to try this size.
One of their locations was looted last Monday but they’ve handled it well.
