Trick Trucks - Lightweight Aluminum Carriages by Trick Laser

[RegB]

Thanks Brian,
Thanks also for also replying to my REDUNDANT pm on this (-:

[jmpreuss]

I don't remember seeing a date anywhere but it appears the $10 off pre order special has now expired.

[RegB]

I *HOPE NOT*, since I am on the web site now and it is saying order now and save $10.

[RegB]

Ooops, I put them in the cart just before some "system problem" and y the time I got to check-out the $10 off was gone.
Maybe jmpreuss was right all along - though the web site STILL says anticipated ship date is Dec 12 and $10 off is available on pre-orders.
Probably still worth $50, but I'll hold for now.

I guess I'll amuse myself with the astrosyn damper upgrade/re-build - those should be here early this week.

your welcome. no problem.

[RegB]

Thanks Brian,
I flipped AGAIN and ordered mine.
Only hang up is that the 625RS bearings seem to be in VERY short supply - and there isn't an EASY way
to know how many you can get, only that you are trying to buy too many.
Heck, I got THREE, so only FIFTEEN to go (-:
Not your problem, but they don't have an easy way to back order either.

Anyway, ~$80 plus whatever I have to pay for the other 15 bearings,,, wherever I can get them.

Looking forward to this.

Have you seen these: http://www.thebigbearingstore.com/servl ... all/Detail" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

[jdurand]

There's always these guys for bearings too.

Sometimes they'll have the bearing priced individually and then again by the bag/box for less.

[0110-m-p]

These guys have always been good and cheap for me.

[bvandiepenbos]

Thanks for the bearing sources guys.

Another option is to order the OpenBuilds V-Wheel "Kits" and add shims, eccentrics, and longer screws. It ends up about the same price (maybe $1-2 more) then you end up with (9) extra 5 x 25 screws.
Order this way...
(27) x Precision Shim - 10x5x1mm
(3) x Eccentric Spacers (Length: 1/4")
(1) x Low Profile Screws M5 (Length: 30mm/10 Pcs)
(9) x OpenBuilds Solid V Wheel Kit

I have had to do that sometimes they don't stock individual bearings, but DO have wheel "kits" in stock.

Screen capture of buy list attached also.

[RegB]

Hmmm, 4, 5, or 6 bux a piece in some places.
A little under $3 if I buy wheel kits, but I would need 8 kits and get a lot of bits left over, since I already bought everything else.
A dollar each, but they are out of stock of the "BEARINGS ONLY" at OpenBuilds - though they have enough to make up 8 kits.
I'm trying to get them to back order for me, since the trucks are in any case 9+ days away.

Could someone post the stl file for the belt clips, I seem to have lost it along with my mind tonight.

Thanks Brian. I looked all over for that, I think my age is catching up to me.
Happy Holidays to you and your family.

I tagged the STL with rostock, belt, clamp, carriage, and tricktrucks.... What other tags would make it easier to search for? Maybe tricktruck without an s and beltclamp/beltclamps?

Jim, I don't think adding more tags would make any difference. I usually can find whatever I need and I think my failure to find that belt clamp was just a senior moment.
Thanks for your attention to this but I really don't think you need to do anything.

[BenTheRighteous]

Eagle I'm not sure if you're aware but you can search a site straight from your browser with the following command: belt clamp site:repables.com

Maybe this link will help!! http://lmgtfy.com/?q=belt+clamp+site%3Arepables.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Excellent point!
Print the belt clamps BEFORE you take apart your machine...
Some have reported that it works better that way

FYI, if anyone else had to take a short shipment of the 625 bearings.

Following an e-mail exchange ...OpenBuilds finally told me that the 625 bearings are back in stock, so I ordered the remaining 15 yesterday.

Too bad I couldn't get them ALL at the 15% Cyber Monday discount and all on the same shipping charge, but at a dollar each... I'll "suck it up".
{Pun alert} I'm bearing it.

Anyone else get their OpenBuilds parts and try fitting them together yet ?

I may be having a blonde/senior moment, but I had EXPECTED the eccentrics to fit inside the bearings.
Either they fit inside the truck plates or I have the wrong eccentrics.
My order SAYS 1/4 inch eccentrics, which is what Brian has spec'd in a few places.
6mm is the only alternative on their site.
