    This was very helpful! I will definitely consider this when my first set of wheels are toast. I just ordered my first cabking 8 a few days ago. Currently waiting on them to get their motors back in stock.

      Fantastic that’s what I love to hear :) I make these videos hoping that I’m helping someone somewhere

      I’ve learned a lot watching your videos over the years. Hope to see more informative videos soon. How long did your pairs of stock cabking wheels last?

    Excellent review! We are lucky to have a cheap and easy fix for worn-out wheels. Hope you get a heated shop soon!

      Canadian Gemstones I agree I feel blessed that this company offers a service :) Unfortunately I don’t think the shop is going to get heated anytime soon whoever built my grandmothers house here on the ranch it was like their first house so it has zero insulation and the electricity is super finicky and the breaker gets tripped if we plug in like electric heaters inside LOL 😭 Anyway my grandfather who lives down the street from me has a heated shop and I usually end up working with him in the winter time

    Thank you for the great info. I need to find some used wheels first to do this. As the ones I got are the only ones i have.

      Definitely whenever you find some used worn out ones for a great price online or at Gemini grocers always try to buy them the fact that they can easily be resurfaced now he’s actually increase the price of use worn out wheels I’ve noticed in the last couple years are used to find them for about five or $10 completely wiped out and now people are selling them for $30 or more even though they can’t even be used as is

    Is Johnson Bros. still resurfacing wheels? There is nothing on their web site and they don't answer the phone. They didn't show up at the Quartzsite Pow Wow.

    Hi Dave! Since you've made this video, have you ever tried resurfacing yourself? Mind you, I guess $30 is pretty darn cheap for the resurfacing. 👍🏻👍🏻

    I bought new Johnson Brothers wheels ( super nova and hard 8"), but I haven't used them yet. Are new and resurfaced any different? How are the hard wheels from your experience? Thanks for all that you do. Love the channel

    • @lapidarydave
      @lapidarydave  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for the comment
      I don’t notice a difference between new and resurfaced and when it comes to their hard wheels they are great in my opinion one of the best in the industry
