How to make a Longboard with Pallet wood - DIY
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 фев 2017
- I had a lot of scrap pallet wood, some reclaimed plywood and some old longboard trucks so... I put them together in this DIY thing :) You just need a jigsaw and a belt sander! and a lot of glue and clamps of course.
Next step, boosted longboard? haha I don't think so :)

Dear viewer: the trucks are not backwards. just look at the kingpins and the axle :)
Cactus! workshop just came to the comments to see if someone with more knowledge of longboards would say
L
I prefer my trucks that way
Cactus! workshop the trucks are supposed to be facing inward with the kingpin and bushing towards the middle
no they aren't. you're thinking regular skateboard trucks, longboard trucks usually have a kingpin orientation like this
Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how well this is edited?
+Cash Eden :D glad you liked it!

I'd say send that to braille, but that is too awesome to watch them break it. Nice one! Also, I want one of those foot switches!
+Let's Make Something Awesome Together hahah I wanna keep this one! :) switches are easy to hack but there are also some pedal switches sold online :)
Ik Braille breaks everything
Btw, I used spring washers for the nuts and will also add thread locker
to make sure those aluminum nuts stay in place! don't worry :) enjoy!!
To avoid that bending of the board I would recommend to build it your self from 0.5 or 1mm thick oak sheets and you should put about 8 or 10 layers. The board will be 10x stronger.
Cactus! workshop
Cactus! workshop Dont do that
I am a simple man. I see pallets - I like! Well done! :-)
+DEKEROS.COM thanks!!
i have never seen a board design like that. its amazing that skate shops dont have this style of grapchics.
Thanks!
skate boarder the boards in shops are made with a different type of wood... The way this board was made does not have concave and a nose or tail... Enjoy has a graphic like this.
skate boarder there's good reason why it isn't done this way
Micah Vincent Seriously. Imagine how heavy the thing is.
This is more for looks than use.
now you have the shop bigger than mine. Beautiful longboard!!
+Mattley hahha yeah! :) grazie
nice piece brother the pallet wood gave it a whole lot of character.
+Opa's Workshop thanks opa!
it looks amazing but i bet its a pretty bad longboard tbh
who cares I like it :D - and I have no idea how to ride it :D
Lues only reason it would be "bad" is because he didn't layer wood that's 1/8th multiple times. For daily commute this board would work fine. For trucks and such a layered board would be more suited
I said tricks but auto correct is fucking stupid
Lues why would it be bad.
@@kiwisadopted3388 it could easily break because the wood is not layered. However if you don't go to crazy on it it should work fine. Most trick skateboards/longboards have 6-8 plys of wood
Custom Cactus Nuts for the WIN!!!! Awesome build and video as always.
+Dan The Maker Man hahah thanks man!
So glad to see a project from the new space!
+Michael Lawing thanks Michael!!
This video was filmed in such unique way, awesome

Sweet board man!
+SimpleCove thanks Sean!
Awesome board build man.
+Christopher McEnery thanks Christopher!
Awesome job man! You EARNED a sub from us. We made a skateboard out of an old wooden water ski. We turned it backwards and used the nose as a kicktail. Your work is inspiring!
+Dan Coover thanks!! Glad you like it!
I like how you get into the video. no talking on why you need a long board. Great work and keep it up. Also you should try clear griptape.
+Levi Lim thanks alot!
Nicely done man.
+Kaged Creations thank you!
Nicely done Carlos! Pretty nice new workshop by the way.

Duuuuude throw some motors on that beast! Awesome build!

REALLY PRETTY PRETTY CUTE!!!!
+Rolando Sulbaran thanks Rolando!
A great job! - very inspiring! and filmed fantastic!
+German RC Creations thank you very much!
I remember Steve Ramsey once saying he didn't think a belt sander was an import tool. It's just so handy for removing material super quick. Great project mate, and those custom nuts are awesome
+Robin Lewis thanks Robin! Yeah indeed it is! But you can always spend a few hours with a sanding block :P haha no way :D
So rad.
Thanks!
Seriously nice result :)

+Claterpult Workshop :) thanks man!
Awesome!! Want one! 🙌🏼👌🏼
+J Smith Woodwork haha thanks!
Can we just take a moment to appreciate that guitar fx pedal in the beginning
+JIESUS :D
the video is amazing and you are truly talented at crafting however longboards need to be able to withstand large amount of tension hence most longboards are made of many plies of strong wood for more flex
Hey there man i'm an experienced longboarder, It was fun watching but watch out with those nuts on the axles man! if you don't use lock nuts (which you eventually used for the bolts after the deck adjustment gladly) the wheels are really prone to coming of since rotational force combined with side pressure wil cause the nut to undo itself. had this happend a couple of times with overused/old lock nuts on the axles.
So watch out bro. if you need proper fitting axle nuts hit up any skateboard store nearby, it's an american size nut.
Hi Robbert! thanks for the tip, I am counting on that, so far I've used spring washers (didn't bother to show it in the video) but yeah, I wan't to apply thread locker for extra safety. I do a lot of machinery and loose nuts are not good! :) I promise to be safe! :) thanks man!
great!, had a pretty nasty injury when a wheel popped off on a little higher speed :P don't what that to happen haha..
+Robbert van Haaften ouchhhhhh
Gorgeous board, I always love your builds as well as your cinematography!
+Lynn Mckenney thanks Lynn!
Pretty cool, I really like the inset baseplate hole, it lowers your center of gravity like mounting your trucks drop-through but on a top mount deck. Very few manufacturers are doing it, the only one I know of is Loaded on their chubby unicorn and blood slayer decks. Nice work
+Max Rein thanks!!
Love the lighting in the new shop. Great build and problem solving right there.
+Master of None glad you liked it!
Its kind thick but brilliant design idea
Rated 10 out of 10 good job sir
+Mircea Chirali thanks!!
This is my favorite diy longboard vid, I’m gonna make one like this
cooool

THanks!!
sehr söhnes video. deine neue werkstatt ist wunderbahr😍
+JENNI.SWISS thank you!
great work -
+Shogun-Jimi thanks!
Nice! You should try with birch plywood next time maybe. It's heavier and stiffer, but more expensive also. But it's nice to see the final result from material that you probably had in the shop already!
+Alessandro Benedetti yeah I know!and yes, this is what I had and it kind of works :) thanks Alessandro!
Great work dude! Very creative problem solving. Maybe a bit heavy but strength is more important.
thanks man! yeah, I don't mind carrying it exchange of some extra swag :P lol
Very cool to see you in the new shop. Awesome stuff love the custom nuts!
+Andrew Jones thanks Andrew! :)
Great build and editing! Couple of problems but you figured them out brilliantly! Greetings from Czech republic!
Thanks Michal! :)))
Love your videos man :)

i just checked, they have.
+Keith Decent hahah oh well. Thanks man!
nicely done!
+B.C.A.M LiveBait thank you!
Very cool video!!
+Jessica Ollinger thanks!!

great work my friend and congratulation for new shop!!!!!
Grazie Giusepppppeeeee
si yo tuviera un taller así, me vuelvo loco, haciendo de todo.
excelente vídeo.
Pues a por ello! :D gracias!
I like the double-ended shape you chose for your deck--I was originally partial to a pintail design until I got the chance to stand on one; now, I prefer something with more room for the back foot. Good job!
Thanks!
master! I love it
Thank you! :)
well, youve definitely earned a new sub. incredible job. I am terrible at making things 😂 I will continue to let you do that as I sit back and enjoy
haha good! thanks!!
Cactus! workshop haha no problem! My grandpa has made most of the furniture in my house. from coffee table, and dining room table, to shelves, a head board, and tv stand. Its awesome what you can do with this
Nice work! Also editing, enjoying it!
+JustBrennholz thank you very much!
