Belt drive, how far will it roll after releasing throttle?

How far will a belt drive roll after releasing the throttle? On a hub board it rides like a regular board so that thing rolls forever! Do belts roll or will it force you to stop faster ?

Meepo mini 3 max hill climb test

Wanted to test how good the meepo was with small hills so I took it downtown and found a couple. It way exceeded my expectations and it had plenty of battery after I was done riding. The parking garage I must have done like 8 times because it was so damn fun going up and then speeding down πŸ™ Did a couple other smaller hills but those didn't look as big in the video so I didn't bother with them. The parking garage doesn't look as steep but boy is that thing steep ! Local skaters "like myself" always come here to bomb it like a hill because it's so steep. The Meepo mini 3 max could easily take bigger hills but I'll have to test that another day. I tested the inclines with a phone app and it said my biggest incline was 13 percent πŸ˜… which seems wrong to me but what do I know. I feel like that parking garage is pretty steep. I have a really good spot in mind to really test the board πŸ›Ή lots of good soft hills in the mountains.

Meepo Edge is the best option

Wanting a belt drive short board but I want speed and torque with range. This is the best board for the price. The tynee is $800 and idk if that's worth it. $500 seems like a better deal but idk. Also I completely forgot this part but do belts roll like the hub motors? Like if I'm not holding the throttle will I continue to roll until I gradually stop or does the belt motors force me to slow down ? I really enjoy pushing on a hub motor board when I'm in a crowded area like Santa Cruz or Santa Monica. So can I push like a regular deck with belt drive boards ?

Okay okay.... I need a belt drive πŸ™

I absolutely love my meepo mini 3 max but I find myself craving more speed πŸ’€ maybe I don't need to be going faster than 30 but for sure I need torque πŸ‘Œ Im getting a belt drive short board and I need recommendations. I like the meepo edge, that looks good πŸ‘€ also the Tynee looks really good. I just mostly want a belt drive for hills and such. Don't really need it but after getting this board I sure do want it 🀷

Only time will tell πŸ˜… so far so good (glued on wheels)

This glue seems to be doing a way better job at holding it together. Only time and heat will tell πŸ˜… also it's so sketchy just thinking about when a wheel will fly off 🀣 gotta do way more testing.

To everyone who said it wouldn't work 😀

Fuck you 😭πŸ₯Ή Glued on 94 mm wheels over 75mm wheels glued together failed instantly. Absolutely did not work. I like the concept though.. any ideas of how to make it work ? πŸ˜…

Simple wainscoting

Some Wainscoting we did two weeks back. We do any designs the homeowner asks us to do but a lot of people just choose this simple design because they aren't totally sure of what they want, plus this design allows for picture frames and mirrors. We have had a couple jobs with crazy designs that I can post later. It's usually doesn't look this good πŸ˜… gotta thank the painters for that one πŸ™πŸ˜‚ the barn door and interior doors were also installed by us but that's for another day.

Meepo mini dual wheel upgrade πŸ˜…

Well no going back now πŸ˜… really hoping it doesn't ride all crazy and outa wack πŸ˜‚ I can always order or hubs from meepo's website. I hope I don't lose a wheel going 18 mph πŸ›ž the glue is made for rubber so I should be okay. If this works it should make my ride significantly smoother. I used a grinding stone drill bit to shave down the rubber as smooth as I could so that it would fit over the meepo mini duals wheels.

We posting bad trim jobs ?

Saw this at a job while doing some crown for this older woman. Every single corner was one of those pre cut bull shit 22's that never line up with the baseboards πŸ˜‚ not as bad as the guys post before me but still πŸ’€ idk how some homeowners don't say anything or ask questions.

Is this Dumb or keep going ? πŸ‘€

Meepo sent me new wheels and so I had these extra wheels that were cracked. It looked just big enough to fit over my meepo mini dual wheels πŸ˜† after taking out the plastic, way harder than I thought it was going to be I realized they were too tight around all the edges. So I got a hot knife and went all the ways around πŸ˜‚ will it be bumpy ? Probably lol will it be fun ? It already has been lol now how do I keep the wheels from falling off without permanently destroying my mini dual wheels with rubber glue ? hmmmm πŸ€”

Meepo Donut 105mm Wheel Set

Why be you ? When you can be new ! Got some new Donut 105mm wheels for the Meepo Mini 3 Max πŸ™ I had zero problems with the 90mm but I was watching robots and Ratchet said his famous line, "Why be you when you can be new" and so I bought the wheels. Just hoping I don't lose traction because those 90mm are super sticky. Idk about these

Night riding eye protection? Also what lights ?

What are you guys using for night riding ? I understand most of y'all probably have skateboard lights and I'll get some eventually but are y'all also riding with flashlight and glasses or goggles? The wind really bothers my eyes going anything over 14 mph so I'm curious what y'all are wearing. I had these glasses for driving at night but they work great for night riding as well πŸ‘ just some night driving glasses from Amazon for $30.

Going fast is addictive. I get it now

I fully understand and take back what I said this morning. I understand going fast now πŸ™ very very fun lol Meepo mini 3 max at night. My make shift headlamp with a strap wouldn't stay in place πŸ˜‚ you guys called that out from the beginning. I'll figure something out for lights. In the meantime just a streamlight flashlight.

Where do you guys keep tools ?

I keep most emergency stuff on the left while keeping most of my hand tools on the right side. The top is usually loaded with tools like a predator 5000 generator, DeWalt miter saw, table taw, a six foot plus a 4 foot ladder, a trashcan with my bag and hand tools, air compressor. Nothing falls out if you organize it properly lol or just use straps. Poor little 5 speed is getting used and abused 😭 I used black paint and bed liner on plywood for the top of the box of drawers. Found this thin rubber mat on Amazon for like $50 and just laid it on top. The drawers are pretty heavy but I used birch plywood on the bottom so they slide pretty easily. No rails because I didn't want to spend $500 on heavy duty rails. A nice slippery birch plywood on the bottom works great. Sides are removable to put more stuff on the sides of the wheel wells so I'm not losing any space. I've had it for about a year and half with no chipping or mold. The whole thing is painted and raised off the bottom so it's not sitting on water. Next rendition will be better πŸ™
