3D Printed Skateboard
Sam Abbot designed and modeled this skateboard deck. He printed one in three pieces (too big for his printer) and fit it together with a dowel system and some epoxy. He’s the first to admit that it’s not super sturdy. Sure, it’s nothing more than a novelty right now, but there are some things you should do, just because you can.

Video showing some of the construction process, but unfortunately none of the printing.
i need to make a 3D gun and blow my brains out.
That reminds me of the all-plastic gun of John Malkovich in In the line of fire.
With all that C&C design it’s surprising he has to hand drill the trucks.
Not practical but it makes a nice showpiece to hang on a wall.
