    Default Minor Bun Engine....made Benny Lava!!

    I just finished this retro-ish pool/mini deck a couple of days ago, and I was thinking of some kind of graphic that would go with the shape. Failing at that, I decided to make a stencil of the most random idea to pop into my head. I settled on this design.




    The board has dimensions of 8" by 28", 0.5" concavity, and pressed using both a vacuum and wood clamps to really get the concave bends. Finished with Polyacrylic.

    Thanks, I was riding it around campus and people were asking me whats with "Minor Bun Engine"?. I guess the allusion was much more obscure than I thought....

    Someone even thought that the indian guy was a gangster

    I've been obsessed with buffalax videos for a long time now! I laughed so hard when I saw this post. Now you need to make a "thriller" deck!

    Mad props!

    hmmm, thriller I was thinking of creating a stencil related to teletubbies or something as well, but shhhhhhh

    Here is the street deck I briefly posted about a couple months ago, but never really gave the details/pics from a lack of free time. So, here they are. The deck is 7.75X31.25", and is made for sliding and transitions (the smaller deck size makes it easier for me to do 360s and standups) with a wb of 14.5". I wanted to go for a painted look, but with uber-clean edges so I taped this bad girl up. Its setup right now with indys and earthwing slides though I'll sometimes put on some mini-logos for a really slippery feel, and no need for risers other than a shock pad because of the steep concave + wheel wells. Though, next time, I want to make the wheel wells even deeper so I can ride with ~64mm wheels w/out risers. I also found that the center wells work really nicely when carrying the board around, it gives a nice place to grip.
    Enjoy the corny subtitles.

    ...it starts with an idea...

    ...an idea that blossoms into dimension...

    ...which can lead to an up-skirt?

    ...alright, I give up, heres the last photo
