How to make a skateboard rail (no welding)

[bLuRxCiNeMA]

Please note that for higher rails a wider base is required.

[MultiTechnodrome]

skinny ass ledge ..nice video

[jdewberry1]

I did one at 12" high an one at 10". The 10" was more sturdy, I added angle brackets at every 90 degree junction on the 12" rig.

[tijosk8]

i find this interesting but i am way too lazy to make one

[nofunwithoutme]

moisture...

[tcain139]

does caulk work? please get back quickly.

[ventuskeywielder]

I seriously thought the older guy was gonna skate it.

[FGskater16]

Bolderbond glue is genius

[FGskater16]

that litle guy on the end can skate

[blacksundriedtomatos]

75 bucks i can make a rail but it needs to be welded for 30 bucks that can be risen from a foot to 2 feet. still thats pretty cool though espically if you dont have a welder.

[GamingZone4Players]

what is one eight foot two by four ? is 2 and 4 in inch or in cm ? please help !

[bryanlonergan]

@GamingZone4Players

Yes, 2 and 4 are in inches. Your local Home Depot will know what an 8 foot 2 by 4 is...

[GamingZone4Players]

@bryanlonergan i live in germany and i must confirm from inch foot in meters and cm...

[GamingZone4Players]

how lng in inch is the middle from 4 to 4 ? the another legs are 7 inch...and in the middle ?

[wassup12346789]

Its a commercial!!!""

[jms4323]

i made a grinding rail but i should of posted on utube

[AsianKid509]

If i make this do i have to use bolder bond or can i use something like super glue? plz reply thanks

[bryanlonergan]

@AsianKid509 Super Glue will not work. Has to be Bolder Bond or Gorilla Glue. Clamp it during drying or it will expand too much...

[IVskaters]

can you boardslide on it? please response :)

[mrcrafter360]

@IVskaters Of course why not :p

[Ppwns1]

how much did all that cost?plz reply

[bryanlonergan]

@Ppwns1 About 75 bucks...

[Ppwns1]

@bryanlonergan thanks

[IChopYu]

[illbeat1337]

[RSLiquid]

"hi today we're gunna...." is Bob fucking Dole making this guide? :L

[kodydarkk]

how long does this rail last? i skate all day and i wanna get my grinds down so it needs to be sturdy as the floor i walk on is

[Jawz1240]

Oh cool cause I have all of this stuff just lying around my garage.... I'm better off buying a $22 razor punk rail...

[854mrkris]

wow it worked i will skate my holl life

[duclou98]

@854mrkris You will learn to spell your whole life too. :D

[skateboarding1818]

[JaVids118]

[kylemuirr]

where can you get the angle iron

[sk8erdog27]

thumbs up if the only reason you came here was cause you have nothing to skate on and you thought you could make your own

[mattdunster]

Yeah no shit .

[mattdunster]

Is it possible to do board slides on it or will you get stuck and fly off ? :p

[Th3R34LR47]

@mattdunster .... if you get stuck and are "Flying" off you might want to consider buying some skate wax

[Coltsfuntawin]

@mattdunster wax nigga

[50DCG36C]

@Coltsfuntawin lol

[McCjify]

[AngelsWithSpears]

[MeTheSk8ter]

THX!

[Bballer974]

Thanks a lot.

I build one and it works really well...

but it costs 80$

[qwertyuiopasdfghj787]

@Bballer974 damn with that money you could just buy a rail and then it is almost perfiect

[ToxicLegend1]

[sk8madgrl]

He sound like Rodney Mullen.. bet he can't skate like him though.

[MicrosoftPoitsPlz]

"Hi Today" then i watched Nyan Cat for 3 and 1/2 hours.....nice going

[McCjify]

[MicrosoftPoitsPlz]

@McCjify Nope. I totally did.

[Crackhecker]

[sk8hh]

Very Nice, Im going to see if my dad could help me with this.

[Crazygmanful]

I would use cocking

[BertGruyaertsChannel]

I could make one if the quality was in HD but great vid dude

[uztoobz]

[Sk8erguy1996]

[jbhot78996]

dude if u send me some of the bolderbond stuff il make some vids of it cuz it seems pretty kool and im a skater so i could build a really kool rail and all kinds of stuff cuz my dad works on constructin

[FunGuy147]

@valle1995tv heil hitler!

[camb1986]

just made that and it looks like shit lol, i cut all my pieces manually with a hand saw and got the wrong size angle iron

[eatsleepbike]

@valle1995tv I believe you're talking about when he says "moisture" talking about how the bolder bond works even when wet and can hold up to the elements (rain, snow, wind, temperature changes, etc.).

[skivboys]

diggin the shoes 

[jacob35900]

[RockenChich]

Hi. Thanks for the nice instructional vid. I would like to try to make my own, how much does all the material cost?  Thanks, RockenChich

[chelben9]

[skatr369]

dude its perfect



[matthewm04]

nice mandles :)

[skatr369]

@matthewm04 took the words right out of my mouth haha

[matthewm04]

@skatr369 go ahead take it out of mine :D spread the queer around!

[timmtums]

look guys........ i am a 11 year old and i cant get any of these supplies.the outdoor skatepark in my town is closed until summer, and the nearest indoor one is an hour and a half away. i have tried to buy one, but there are NO rails under 100 bucks. i cannot buy any of those. i am mad about this and it would really help if any of ya guys who knew how to get some cheap rails online would send me the link.

thank you

[matthewm04]

@timmtums any store that sells skateboards (fake) like target, toys r us, sports chalet, and some good skate stores actually have expensive element flat bars,

[RightFootForward11]

I like the part where you showed us how to make the base

[justjpve1]

@RightFootForward11 he's  being nice enough to show you how to make a good ramp.. be nice.

[Th3R34LR47]

@RightFootForward11 .... Screw the wood together or use woodglue. its simple and shouldnt need to be explained

[AdioX321]

Ok, i have a 10ft angle iron w/ holes. so ill cut it in half with a metal cutting jig saw than DRILL instead of glue

[airtronics300095]

@AdioX321 whole point of glue is so the screw dont get in the way?

[PancakeProductions20]

so i built mine, its cool for skatebaording, but if you put a deck finish for weather on it, u can use it for snowboarding....awsome

[livetoadie]

@Sk8productions27, first off, ive been skating for 9 years, second of all i dont have a camera, and lastly i dont give a fuck what you think, i hate kids who try and start shit over youtube, say it to my face

[KennyGkienan]

@livetoadie straight up dawg the little priss dont know crap

[Skat3rboy97]

thanks

[OLLIVER]

watch the 2x4s used for the feet. If you bail and step wrong on those it's an easy ankle twister. That's one reason most rails have flat feet.

[thepedoclown]

NO shit sherlock!!!!! 

[BOYLOBOYLO]

that is fuckin deadly fair play , i know and learnt how to weld but dont have no welder , really smart idea dude

[pezilla123]

lol i wouldnt trust that..

[wwwwiiiiiiww2]

pretty sketchy.



[chewbacawaka]

what's the last material? i don't know what it is..

[Edgar8527]

@chewbacawaka bolderbond

[chewbacawaka]

@Edgar8527 thanks, but i found out at the end haha

[DJspin88988]

@chewbacawaka Are you talking about the two peices of metal cause it's called angle iron got to home depot lowes any store that like those and just ask for angle iron they should have it

[chewbacawaka]

@DJspin88988 nah, i was talking bout bolder bond thanks tho

[DJspin88988]

@chewbacawaka oh alright then i wasn't sure and no problem dude

[livetoadie]

This rail or "hubba" is really good, at first i thought my trucks wouldn't fit on the top of the iron, but they fit perfectly for a flatbar rail. just out of the week iv had it, iv learned kickflip fs boardslide front shuv out, and really nice crooks.

[Sk8Productions27]

@livetoadie Bull, i would love to see you Kick to board to shove out! post a video

[Sk8Productions27]

@livetoadie Bull, i would love to see you Kick to board to shove out! post a video I bet you cant do it

[THEREALSK8NERDS]

@livetoadie wow thats an awsome lie kickflip front board front shuv out IN ONE WEEK shoot u would make a really good actor!

[mistrmuffin]

id say about 30-40 dollars cause those 2by 4s are roughly 2.50 for 8 feet,and just 2 sheets of anle iron is atleast 20 dollars plus about 4 bucks for the 4 by 4 (plus those brackets and screws will come up to about 5 - 10 bucks)and instead of boulder bond you can use some marine epoxy or even cocking

[skuxdeluxable]

how much did this roughly cost you?

[boardslider93]

hye this is pretty gud, guy if you dont mind check out my vids on my channel =) cheers x

[retaksbackwards]

wat do u call that metal thingy? and how much?

[erminmurrill]

@retaksbackwards its an angle iron, just ask about it at your local lowes or home depot, whatever you have in your town. they should have it

[haidgu]

whow thats look pretty easy ty

[rudnymullenlover]

this is only gr8 for tail slides and bord slides but no 50-50 or 5-0 or smiths :(

[haidgu]

@rudnymullenlover dude you c<an doe all the grinds on it

[thtemokid96]

@rudnymullenlover

dude u can do like anything on there??

[im2kewl4u23]

@rudnymullenlover yeah it is cause the metal coaping is just barely like a cm high, which is still high enough which you can still grind on, cause i thought about that too lol but then i relized you could grind on it :D

[supernewuser]

@rudnymullenlover even if your trucks didn't fit perfectly on the bar, grinding on the edge of the rail is the exact same as you would do on a box. All grinds are perfectly fine on a box, so I am not sure what isn't great about those tricks on that rail.

[RomanHeng]

thanks im going to do this

[iVideology]

this didnt work with my aluminium corner metal things

[skoneoke]

thats not a rail thats a curb

[djtoste100]

[MrLambine]

[Songboy1997]

would this work for aggressive skates?

[johncolombianito]

@Songboy1997 i don't see why it wouldn't

[degameth23]

how much does this end up costing?

[McAtamney8]

Can someone post a list of all the materials needed to build this rail. Thanks:D

[sk8in4dafunofit]

@McAtamney8 go on diyskate.com and this is on there step by step plus tons of other rails, boxs, and ramps that you can build.

[hughesphillip]

@McAtamney8 he tells you every material you need

[gamerfreak082]

[eliteskater10]

[lpchileskate]

[madmarcus386]

[TMerle]

@madmarcus386 i built my whole box with less than that.. 5 bucks less to be exact

[anthonyandrichardsk8]
