zorg: Zorg(others) bolts? (12. Dec. 2007 16:46)
	Only old wireless tools for me: very inexepensive, low noise level (I leave in an appartement). I just use a hand saw. I could cut easily 7mm thick Aluminium along 30cm: you start from from both ends (3mm inox steel too, but that's hard....). Same for drilling!!! I can fix the ramp without electricity, or dealing with batteries...... : : Any special tools to cut the aluminum? I dont have a bandsaw..... I'm making more speed skates. The full length insole would be beyond my tools now I think. : : I'd have to ask the guy who did it for me. But he was working at a metal-processing outfit back then ...

ireNe: Soccer cleats? (12. Dec. 2007 20:48)
	I don't know anyone whose done that. Very innovative. Might you be interested in these boots? They are narrow and a little long for me. Same size 6 as my old boots, but the new model of this boot is cut differently. I could measure the insole for size. They sell for around 50 bucks. Make me an offer I can't refuse. http://stores.ebay.com/Flyin-Phils-Place_Skate-Boots_Speed-Boots_W0QQcolZ2QQdirZQ2d1QQfsubZ2QQftidZ2QQtZkm

	With those tools, can ya hook these up for me? ;-) : I used rugby bots for my first set of skates this time round and they had the screw in studs so I re-positioned the stud nuts to suit the plates and the bolts go into the boot from the outside.Now I use the same type nut for all my skates,I will try and post a photo of the nuts when I get a chance, : Hey Zorg,,after seeing your tools I'm thinking I should have sent you some wooden wheels maybe.. : : cheers joe : : : : : Only old wireless tools for me: very inexepensive, low noise level (I leave in an appartement).

	Here are the bolts heads for 2 of my skates (4mm in diameter): -left: speed -right: ramp (I could re-use the central nuts for inline plate+ quads ones) For the cleats, try to cut not too much, just what you need to adapt the sole on you flat plate (and keep the natural bent curve of you shoe). The back cleats migth remain, to act as heal block: : I found some short mounting bolts with sinking heads and washers that go down 2mm. The washers are 10/16" diameter. Good enough for the soccer skates? Whats best to cut the rubber cleats? Saw, xacto or jigsaw carefully? Got a lot of em. Found out speed sessions are Wed. nights! : : I signed up that site but no confirm email so not sure I can use it or if I did something wrong...

	Well, I might have to wait a week to mount them since I have an exam. I might take out the flat bolts out of my hockey skates and try those. I think they would work the best. If I could get t-nuts or something like you have, that would work better. But my feet are fairly narrow for the shoes so I could just put in a mm extra padded sole to cover up the heads. Think these boots would work ok for indoor speed too? If not, they would be great trekking street skates! The speed skates Lisa sells is way beyond my budget right now. But I hope to get some off ebay for $10 lol. : Here are the bolts heads for 2 of my skates (4mm in diameter): : -left: speed : -right: ramp (I could re-use the central nuts for inline plate+ quads ones) : : : For the cleats, try to cut not too much, just what you need to adapt the sole on you flat plate (and keep the natural bent curve of you shoe).
