^Blu tack I guess shocked

Either that, or screw it into a long piece of wood so that it stays still, and it won't have to be screwed into your table or anything shocked

hard bushings will never ride "loose" meaning the steering of the trucks.

soft busings will never ride "tight"

the compound of rubber is what determins how a truck will steer - either be verry hard and stiff = not turning - or a medium compound wich can ride slightly firm or slightly loose - or a soft compound bushing will always ride loose nomatter how tight you tighten your bolt on it. it will just squish down until it explodes before the truck will ride firm.

it is just a preference but at the same time looser trucks makes for better flow and style usualy inless you like hard bushings and make ur style and flow usualy look sloppy because u cant carve out of tricks ect

why can i not get my plys to dye all the way thru ?

ive got a plastic tub of about 8 oz water - mixed in a whole package of rit dye orange - let plys sit in there for about 36 hours and when i cut off a corner - its still not orange all the way thru the plys.

i am using maple 1/32 thickness i believe.

what should i be trying to use to dye plys instead of rit dye ? because obviously thats not working so good.
