    I came back 8 years later to this video specifically to make sure I was doing this right. Thanks for many fixed boards.

      Over the years I’ve wished I did this a bit better. I’ve also read comments with some better suggestions too. The video is still good. I think for smaller chips, this works. Saw dust with wood glue could work too. Wood filler can be too brittle with large chips. Glad this has worked out for you all these years. Got any suggestions for future videos?

    to all germans:
    i didnt find Wood filler in my local hardware store so i bought a 500g Box of "Molto Holz Reparatur Spachtel" for about 5€ and it works perfectly well.

    When the board chips, save the piece that broke off and glue it back on.
    Boom.
    That's what I always did.

    True. Sometimes it's not a big deal, but not everyone lives in the USA where decks are cheap. Most places, outside the US, decks start at over $80. A lot of people want to make their decks last as long as possible. A friend of mine who is a pro vert skater was so picky about shapes. When he found one that flipped good he actually busted the nose one day and asked me if I could repair it. He could get free decks anytime, but this deck shape felt good. So, repairs are work for a lot of people.

  • @RatVision
    @RatVision  12 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    That works too. There are always multiple ways to do things. This method does not work on big chips for the reasons you mentioned. Out method works for small chips on the top surface.

  • @deimosphob
    @deimosphob 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    If you have a longboard that has cut-outs for the wheels that has plywood that has chipped out completely, it might just be more economical to screw in a new piece of wood and add a plastic guard over it. In all of my custom deck's I dip the tips into colored silicone in order to prevent further chipping, also it looks really cool.

    Good attitude! You learned something that you'll remember for the rest of your life.

  • @RatVision
    @RatVision  11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love your enthusiasm, and you are right about glue and saw dust. Unfortunately, most people don't have wood glue sitting around, so they'll need to go buy it. They probably don't have saw dust that has been carefully placed in a jar that is now sitting on a shelf above the toilet. That's where I keep my saw dust preserves. They will need to saw something like a chair leg. So, buying wood glue and making saw dust versus just buying wood filler and a putty knife... wood filler wins. Sorry.

  • @RatVision
    @RatVision  12 ปีที่แล้ว +8

  • @jewishfox6580
    @jewishfox6580 10 ปีที่แล้ว +29

    Also there is a little trick, that old time woodworkers use. Instead of using "Wood Filler" you can mix some saw dust, and glue. You will get almost the same result. =)

    • @RatVision
      @RatVision  10 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      Yeah it works great too. Skaters aren't wood workers, so they'd have to get a saw and some wood, make saw dust, and go get wood glue. Since they need to get wood glue, it might be a lot easier to just get wood filler. That's why.

    We have a video for this exact thing that has not been released yet. It will be out next week. In short, take the chunk out or any wood that has got between the plies. With a flat screw diver pry open the plies and squirt in wood glue between the plies. Clamp the plies and let them dry over night. Then sand the edge of the deck and reshape nose or tail with sand paper. Did the plies actually split in the center/middle of the deck?

  • @matthewvaughn8522

    If you have a hard time getting the filler out of the tube, you can take some scissors and cut the tip. Works for any similar tubular container yo

  • @pwnfries
    @pwnfries 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    his tips on gripping a board are fantastic for skateboarders. If you don't "go to town" one some gnarly 24 grit vicious or gator, cutting it will be among the hardest thing you have ever done. Longboarders will know what I mean.

  • @jay_maybe

    You can try to peel back just the problem area. As long as the grip is still sticky and you can totally avoid getting any dust on it you may be able to stick it back on. Most likely it won't.

That's going to be the shittiest wood and lamination process they can use. It's going to fall apart faster than the repair job in this video. Also, he did the repair for $10, so still less than half the cost of buying that deck.

    Sorry for the late reply. Most of you r answers are in the video. The time it takes for the putty to dry is written on the container. Usually 24 hours. Do it won't effect the way you skate. And you can reshape the tail so it isn't square. Go over the grip tape for a couple minutes or when it becomes hard to peel off.

    Why didn't I think of that? Duh! Actually the point I was illustrating was that although the idea of a pointed tube is a nice idea, it doesn't help to get the wood filler between the plies no matter how much you cut off.

    Don't forget the difference between silicon carbide and aluminum oxide grit. Which one is better. Do you think any pro knows the difference, or do they just ride the grip tape from the brand who pays the most money?

    The spot where you put it might have been dirty/dusty. It needs to be clean. It can also break off if the chip area is big or if the wood filler has too much pressure applied to it. Check out our other video on delamination and razor tail. That might help you more.

    This is an amazing tutorial! It really helped me out its a 2 in 1. A tutorial for fixing chips in your deck also a tutorial to apply some griptape onto your deck i highly recommend this video.

    It depends on the chip. Usually a chip happens from razor tail, and once you get a chip it can get worse and worse. This isn't for everyone or every situation. If you don't feel you need to fix a chip than this isn't for you.

    it most likely is. We have new videos hopefully posting today. One is about razor tail and chips. It's like a pre-quel to this video.

    No, but we have a video that is done and will be released in a week or 2 when our site is finished.

    Yes, it would bring back pop by making the tail stiffer.

    quick solution to the squeeze bottle is to cut the nozzle a little bit bigger and it should flow out quite evenly

    I used to use my trucks to file the grip tape but it's really nice to have a file. You can get one for pretty cheap at harbor freight

  • @RatVision
    @RatVision  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yes, I did. Did you watch the video all the way through or did you skip ahead. I mentioned this in the video.

    Yes. See our video on fixing razor tail and delamination

    hey couple of questions
    1) how long does the wood putty take to dry?
    2) does it effect the way you skate with a square tail?
    3) and finally how long do I go over the grip tape with the blow dryer
    If you get to answer this it would mean alot. Thanks

  • @RatVision
    @RatVision  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Did you leave it outside?

  • @jonsdaniel
    @jonsdaniel 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    You could use the old griptape that you removed as a sander. And if I have a chip on my nose that the 2 top plys came up could i just squeeze the wood glue thing into the open area of the plys where it came up and then clamp it down? Without taking off the grip.

    Personally, I would love to see a video where you put a skateboard together completely. Start with the deck, grip it, mount the trucks, put the bearings and wheels in, but add the "SkateboardTech" feel by explaining WHY you put it together a certain way. I feel like it would be really helpful to know what exactly a skateboard is and does.

    Going to try this, I scored a sweet Anti Hero deck a while back, but it has a huge chip in the tail. Otherwise its in great shape, so i have it on my wall right now

  • @JoLo1028

    Thanks for the great tips. Restoring my kids board. How long do you let your wood filler sit to dry before sanding?

  • @RatVision
    @RatVision  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Probably with very fine sandpaper. It's a Penny. Is it that important?

    Great video! Super helpful! Where did you get the grip tape from!

  • @RatVision
    @RatVision  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    How big was your chip? Did it chip in the same spot or in another place? This is not a solution for any size chip. If the tail or nose is still weak, meaning that it can still move or flex then all the wood filler will break off. The reason is that there is nothing for the wood filler to hold onto for structural support.

    Make more videos you are by far the best on youtube regarding skateboards

  • @RatVision
    @RatVision  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    It's a good idea to, but you can do whatever you want. If you ever have to take your trucks off or tighten them you are going to have to cut the grip around the bolts and that isn't fun.
