yes please, they even have a series called "you make it we skate it" or something were people send in weird skateboards, and they test them to the limits.
The film and editing crew is really putting in work. The flow is good. The bloopers are good. I’m glad manufacturing is getting the spotlight it deserves. Y’all are doing great!
YEP - people dramatically underestimate how my work goes into good content. I know a girl, she does 4 X 15 second Tic Tok vids a day, she gets up at 5am and works a 10 hour day. thats how you get 5 million followers.
I love this shit, as a a life long skater, firearm enthusiast, CNC machinist, shop owner, the recent videos you guys been posting have been great to see! That treflip was butter!
When I taught solidworks I had students model skateboards to show off the spline feature. I tried to get the students to appreciate that wood bends the same way around anchor points as the way the spline tool bends at its control points. Each semester a few kids who actually skateboard would purchase blanks and we would use their model to machine a custom board for them on a router. Kids really got into that project.
Honestly I haven’t even finished watching this video yet but the quality of editing and cinematography involved in these videos is just incredible and the rate you guys pump them out makes it that much more impressive. Used to be a skateboarder myself as a teen.
You should mass produce these and make sure you patent it. It’s beautiful. I don’t even ride skateboards anymore but would buy one because it just looks so nice!! Loved watching it being made.
I ran a Moro Seki SL 4 for years. I had to program it with only G code only. Seeing you guys now and all the software and tools you use is fantastic to watch. I am retired now, but it brings back memories of all I did. THANK YOU for what you are doing.
I'm no skater, but damn... that thing is a piece of art! 🔥 5:50 - "only for weight reduction" Well, yeah, but you could probably mount a battery and some RGB LEDs in those pockets and have your board light up
Now THIS is my kind of TH-cam!! Amazing work and walk through of the process, the final video editing and colorwork is just as epic. All round 10/10, stoked i found this channel!
Haha sorry fellas, i answered this a few times. But around $800-1200. We are going to make a few more and sell them on our store. Extremely limited quantity, we arent in this to make money on parts, just education and awareness.
@Jack Torrance lol, there are some 747s built in the 70s that are still flying today, so I don't think anyone who buys one of these aluminum skateboards will have to worry about fatigue, at least not in their lifetime. :)
@@barrysetzer I'm happy Titan allows you and the team the freedom to do things like this, just a side project to keep the skills up and learn something new along the way.
thats what you get when you employ ex skaters as your videographers. these guys been doing and filming skating since they were teens. lifetime of experience
everything about this video is just amazing, great work guys. thats the most beautiful board i have ever seen and i love the sound of the metal scraping the ground
Yea that sound was nuts when he initially set the board down on the ground. It looks cool, but I bet it feels really weird without the wooden board flexing and giving you that ‘pop’.
Great video. Love the explanation of every tool path and its purpose, going into the process of how to workhold the board through the different ops and why was very nice. Definitely the best CNC channel on TH-cam.
The combination of great editing, slick shots of the skateboard taking shape inside the machine and the field testing post machining made for an enjoyable video. Also, Titan's a heck of a boss for letting you guys jump off CNC machines and ollie over drums of coolant!
Amazing video per usual. This one will definitely hit home with non-machinists who haven’t heard of the industry. Love these videos that relate to the public eye more!
This video made me think about my grandfather. He was a tool and die maker before GM forced him into retirement after 43 years of working for them, It's sad because his health went downhill after that happened, He lived for that job and wasn't ever afraid of hard work.
I don't even skate or do any CNC-ing but this is a work of art. Not only does it look sick but extremely functional as well with additional features of not having to replace the grip tape (or at least the grip will last much longer than a conventional one)
As a long time skater (15 yrs) I'd love to own two of these. One to mount pretty on the wall, and one to skate/make videos with. Phenomenal job on the design it's stunning 🤘👏
Every video we do, we try to show you a cool process, product, or method that maybe you havent seen before. The companies that support education are usually featured in the videos, but that doesnt make it an infomercial! We only use the stuff we believe in.

I started noticing the videos getting much better with the eagle bust, the tungsten carbide comb looking part on the EDM and definitely this.

After watching you guys work with Brandon Herrera and Braille I'm now subscribed. I was a machinist for 28 years so watching a machine run while cool is something I've watched for 28 years so not that interesting. Seeing it being done for the things I love especially firearms,I'm too old to skate anymore but it's still cool,is very interesting.
Do you think you will make a full tutorial on the CAD and CAM part? Thanks for all your educational videos btw, I'm getting more and more into this world
I mean it's a board that will last longer than you will. Wood boards eventually start delaminating and cracking. Only thing you need to change on this would been the wheels and rubber/plastic stuff.
it probably wont change skateboard industry , but it is a pretty awesome idea to make a 6061 beehive shaped board. it would probably outperform other boards fr flips...there is less resistance in the air....weight reduction....all in all a neat thing
I love this channel along w/ NYC CNC. I wish you guys had a series where you worked on a shapeoko or openbuilds cnc or something to transfer some of this knowledge along to less rigid machines for us noobies to the cnc/manufacturing world. I cried tears when “slumming it” on this channel was running a job on a Torimach 😂
I would assume like wooden skateboard you would actually just bend the curved edges instead of wasting 90% of thick block, would make production cheaper & faster
@@SimonSays- not really, you see if you bend metal it weakens it and wants to bend back, so for maximum rigidity youd mill it from a block like shown. Since you need to mill all the holes anyways the roughing operation isnt what takes so long.
Is the "grip tape" truly uneven bumps like it looked in the render? That seems like a good idea for increased grip, did you guys do any research onto potential patterns to use for the maximum grip since you had a reduced surface to use?
I am pretty sure that is the renderer, there is no point in rendereing millions of polygons for such small structures, plus it would absolutely destroy the performance of the viewport. The round bits are just an artifact of the lower polygon count.
I'm pretty sure the pattern you're seeing is the waviness from the large stepover with the ball mill combined with the v-shaved grooves added by chamfer tool. What you see on the screen is what will be machined.
I would love to see how it holds up over time. If if acts and responds like a regular skateboard, then the industry really needs to start moving in that direction. Wood boards break way too quickly.
Yep, My 15 & 17 Yr old boys go through about 5-6 boards a year each. They do Make carbon fiber boards which im going to pick one up for myself but that aluminum board kicks ass, napalmcustom.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/napalm_dark_fiber_bottom_deck-1-e1624625580913-300x244.jpg
Damn i had this idea a while back. I forgot about it. hahaha That's a badass looking board. Damn. I wish i could just make random stuff instead of real parts.
Seriously, I wish I had time for government jobs. I'm an an apprentice and hell I'm not even given enough time to finish my first set of 1-2-3 blocks 🤣
You guys need to send this to Braille Skateboarding as one of their You Make It, We Skate It series! Also, was there a reason that you didn't go both directions when making the "grip tape" with that chamfer mill? It seemed like a lot of additional cycle time to rapid across the board rather than going both directions.
@@barrysetzer Ohh, ok. I'm used to programming in Fusion, where I'd use a Parallel toolpath on a surface body to do that. Using a surface body, I don't have to worry about all of the pockets, and I can tell it to go both ways. You can also extend the surface out a few thousandths to make sure the toolpath doesn't drop off a cliff on the edges. I had a lot of issues with that on the stuff I was machining...
@Tower Crisis, since im the one that designed it, programmed it, ordered the material, and machined it, i think I have a good idea what it cost 😂. $250 material, 4.5 hours machine time
I completely agree braille needs to see this. As a skater and machinist this is absolutely a dream come true for me! Great work guys. I envisioned something similar. Too much time on the wire. 😂
HEY TITANS!! PLEASE CONSIDER MAKING LONG BOARD DOUBLE BASS DRUM PEDALS!! Single pedals as well. If any of aren't sure what I'm talkin' about, The Trick, and Axis brands are great examples to look into. The drum kit playing community as always looking for a better double pedal drive shaft, and double pedals in general.. I'm sure if your company designed a good unit, I'm sure they would sell quite well.👍🏻😉
Yup, new trucks definitely need to be tightened up often as the bushings wear in. What bearings are you guys running? Some Swiss China Bones or something? The machined grip tape was a great idea too. Awesome job CNC-ing something that I doubt has ever been done/ attempted before. 👍👍
Wow I just got back home from the skatepark and you guys uploaded this gem! As an industrial engineer/skater I didn't know I needed an aluminum skateboard until now! 😂🛹 Please sell these on your website 🙏 😅
I haven't finished this video, but I am already excited. I got into machining because I didn't know what I wanted to do with my life. (I was 16) I went to the career center. Got introduced to MasterCam. Never looked back. My senior project became a skateboard. I forget the project guidelines but I designed a skateboard. It never got cut. (I also designed my first mold... for curb wax. That got cut out of wood and never made it to aluminum. I still have that block of aluminum. 🤦♂️) Anyways. 20 years later... Maybe I should finish what I started in HS. Thanks for the inspiration. And the reminder of what got me into machining. I was really curious how trucks were made. My teacher never helped me figure that out... I did a few years after I got out of high school. This video takes me way back in life. Let me edit. I Machined the board out of wood, along with the mold. Both projects ran out of time. We only had one cnc. I actually helped other people finish their projects and never mine. MY teach gave me an A because I, officially made 7 other projects. Just not mine... 🤦♂️
I still have an Aircraft brand aluminum deck from around 25 years ago that I can't imagine weighs any more than a wood deck. It had its disadvantages...it was extremely loud, and if you didn't keep the plastic guards on the tails it could literally slice you open. The one I have had hairline cracks at each truck mounting point, but it's still a pretty cool piece of skating history.
That thing has some nice pop There was a company that made aluminum boards long time ago with the company aircraft i believe My buddy got one because it was supposed to be unbreakable But he snapped it doing an air out of the big bowl into the free at kona
love how you bring CNC to the casual public with these kind of videos, also that drum n bass song timelapse hits different lmao
If you liked the song checkout "Thievery Corporation " - It Takes a Thief Album
Sounds very similar to “firestarter” by the prodigy.
I believe the track we heard is part of this album : th-cam.com/video/8voQp7KDsng/w-d-xo.html
Drum n Bass is bliss in form of sound
This skateboard looks amazing! I'd love to see you send it over to the guys at Braille Skateboarding to see what they think of it.

I'm sure if your company designed a good unit, I'm sure they would sell quite well.👍🏻😉
As it turns out, this is exactly what I needed to see today.
As it turns out, these are the comments i like to read! Thanks for watching!
That's one of the coolest things I've seen in a long time ! Sick work !
Love it! Projects like these really show case your manufacturing skills.
Perfect board for a skate shoe commercial. Love it!
Yup, new trucks definitely need to be tightened up often as the bushings wear in. What bearings are you guys running? Some Swiss China Bones or something? The machined grip tape was a great idea too. Awesome job CNC-ing something that I doubt has ever been done/ attempted before. 👍👍
Wow I just got back home from the skatepark and you guys uploaded this gem! As an industrial engineer/skater I didn't know I needed an aluminum skateboard until now! 😂🛹 Please sell these on your website 🙏 😅
I want one too xD
Hi! I’m the Community Coordinator for TITANS of CNC. If you’re still interested in inquiring about a board, please message us on our Facebook page.
@@Sara-TOC Thanks I'll send an inquiry soon 😁🛹
@@RaulEdu33 Excellent! Thank you for your reply! We greatly appreciate your continued support 😊🤙
A piece of functional art. 🎨
Bravo.
I haven't finished this video, but I am already excited. I got into machining because I didn't know what I wanted to do with my life. (I was 16) I went to the career center. Got introduced to MasterCam. Never looked back. My senior project became a skateboard. I forget the project guidelines but I designed a skateboard. It never got cut. (I also designed my first mold... for curb wax. That got cut out of wood and never made it to aluminum. I still have that block of aluminum. 🤦♂️) Anyways. 20 years later... Maybe I should finish what I started in HS. Thanks for the inspiration. And the reminder of what got me into machining. I was really curious how trucks were made. My teacher never helped me figure that out... I did a few years after I got out of high school. This video takes me way back in life.
Let me edit. I Machined the board out of wood, along with the mold. Both projects ran out of time. We only had one cnc. I actually helped other people finish their projects and never mine. MY teach gave me an A because I, officially made 7 other projects. Just not mine... 🤦♂️
Man you did the right thing, but i agree, its time to finish what you started!!!
@@barrysetzer my engineer watches this channel. The moment he mentions this video to me.
"So you letting me make that on company time?" 😁
Nice jungle music in the shot. You guys got style!
Wow such masterpiece for wall art of CNC. And original.
I'm not skateboarder but seeing it, I want to be ! 😁🇲🇫
Y’all should definitely make another one to send to Braille skateboarding for their “You Make It, We Skate It” series!
This is officially the coolest thing I've seen this week. And i drove to the eclipse 3 days ago.
As a skater and a Swiss guy I appreciate this video
I still have an Aircraft brand aluminum deck from around 25 years ago that I can't imagine weighs any more than a wood deck. It had its disadvantages...it was extremely loud, and if you didn't keep the plastic guards on the tails it could literally slice you open. The one I have had hairline cracks at each truck mounting point, but it's still a pretty cool piece of skating history.
glad to see stuff like this.
I want one for my mancave…what an awesome piece of art. The video is entertaining too!
This is so damn cool. Thanks for sharing. The slow-mo shots at the end are absolutely mental
I've programmed that cnc machine aswell for school lol. Had to make an injection mold, was pretty funny. Doing mechanical engineering
Damn that looks amazing. I feel like it should be in a museum or something, wow.
That machining was beautiful. Well done!!!
Coming off working on Haas CNC machines for a about 6 years. This BVM 5700 already looks like a better machine. Great video!
love the step by step explanation/video of the work as it goes.
makes it so anyone can follow and understand how its done.
Awesome!
This has got to be the sickest and potentially most expensive board out there!
i appreciate how you explained each step by step.
Just found your channel. This is so sick.
Collaborations would make this channel 10x better and bring in different audiences that might be interested in the subject.
That thing has some nice pop
There was a company that made aluminum boards long time ago with the company aircraft i believe
My buddy got one because it was supposed to be unbreakable
But he snapped it doing an air out of the big bowl into the free at kona
Love it! Projects like these really show case your manufacturing skills.. Quiero probarlo.
I swear Barry always does the coolest stuff!!
Thanks Mark! Like the guy in Gladiator said, most of the time: I do what I have to. But sometimes, I do what I want to.
@@barrysetzer bahahahaha 🤣
