| maybe my caliper is out??? its actually really funny, (and somewhat interesting) ive just checked my latest batch of decks, and yes on the digital caliper they are all coming in around 100.50....but when i stand a deck up against a ruler, it looks like the deck is under 100mm.....but if i then take the digital caliper at 100.50, then put it against the ruler, its saying 100.50. get your head around that? ill always go by what the caliper says |

| I think the deck seems shorter when you measure it with the ruler as the kicka are a bit angled on the edges which you don't measure with the ruler but when you use the caliber you get them measured as the caliber measures from the top and down (if you get what I mean haha) and the ruler only measures the top of the deck without the angled parts of the kicks.
When I measure my Blosom deck with a ruler the length is 100mm long and when I measure it with a caliber the deck is 100.5mm long. |

the y "lock nuts" aren't actually lock nuts, its called a kingpin. The kingpins on y's usually don't have any problems. There are lock nuts on brt's. I don't really see a difference a lock nut or kingpin makes though, but it's all preference in the end |

| so uhmm i got my brt 1.0s in the mail and I have a slight problem. I even texted BrianC for help.
One of the baseplated are stripped. The other only two holes are stripped but i'm okay. The other when I screw in the screws with even tech deck screws they wont screw in. and I have no wider screws. So I measured and found out that the brt hanger can fit on the Penny baseplates. But is it really worth it to use a tech deck Penny baseplate on a brt hanger. Because the pivot cup wont fit on the penny baseplate unless i make the hole bigger on the baseplate. Or should I order 2.0 baseplates. Is there any way to fix the stripped holes? I think on FFI I saw someone say it's possible.
