Yeah, I can machine some up but loads of people said about alternative materials so I thought I'd investigate.

What diameter do you make your blocks?
How much do you charge for your kits? If it's cheaper I'll just buy one from you!

If you put them on a conveyor belt, will they fly?

It may have taken more time but learning about material properties at college was better than a high speed lesson from "Professor Face-plant" as you grind your cheeks on the tarmac!

That expression is awfully amusing.

Hehe, I have a way with words!

Surfenstein, you didn't give me a price for your 2" kit. I would need two as a friend wants one too!

Cheers,

And how many do we need to lift a surf? I am going to get my brother to machine some up for mine, but am unsure how many blocks I need!

[lord_flashart]

That would be 10.

60mm diameter, 50mm long with a 10mm bore.
