This is how it happened..
The idea came out during my office hour,
Sketching out a very simple blueprint and sent to my brother Yaw;
and he agreed to take a shot see if we could make it.
So we went to get wood, PVC pipe, screws, and all the tools & equipment ready
on a Saturday morning.
I want to thank Yaw, for all his strength, power, passion, support, energy, etc.
First of all... you need to buy the materials.. Wood and PVC Pipe.. and of course, you must have your tools and equipment and do not forget your safety equipment as well.
It is a little IMPOSSIBLE if you think you can do it alone. So.. you will also need the best brother in the world to help you up.
Then only we start Making a P-Rail.
Measurement & Angle is important in making the "A" which accommodate the PVC Pipe.
Once done, Drill both pieces of wood to form a solid base from avoiding the "A" splitting.
Saw to trim the base #1.
Saw to trim the base #2, obviously, we need 2 bases, at least.
finishing base #2
Now, how to drill the PVC on the "A"?
Perfect is not necessary, but Do it precisely.
And this is how we secure the "A" on the Base.
3 screws went down directly.
Make sure they all go all the way in, best is to force them flush.
Most ppl still didnt get this as most of the online "How to make a P-rail edit" didn't show as close as this.
So, this is how we did it. Drilled a hole from the PVC and...
You got to make sure the angle is correct.
And to avoid the crack like this.. drill at least approximately half a foot from the edge of the wood. Unless u are getting a high quality wood, then this notice is discard.
More screws for the base.
If the screw is too long and somehow pops out from the wood when u do the drilling from the PVC to the "A" with a wrong angle, you can alway cut the screw to shorter.
Almost done..
Final turn of the final screw, finally
Finally!!!
Yeah!!! This is it, the making of P-Rail.
Truly from WEE BROS. ENGINEERING CO.
Haha~!!!
If u love stickers.. you could add them on as deco for ur personal p-rail.
After that.. Start skating~
Hope you enjoy reading this "P-Rail Making" page.
Try it yourself, GOOD LUCK!
ill try to build just the same tomorrow. i bought everything already. wish me luck ^^
