Old used skateboard with new function

[Bret]

I visited the skateboarding sports hall.
Unbelievable what the boys and girls can do today. Great artifacts.
Unfortunately again and again a skateboard is broken and must be replaced.

When I left the sports hall I saw at the exit a large box with old decks.
Then came me the following idea, why not make something new.
I asked about one broken deck.... yepii :biggrin:
I would like to show you my first skateboard pen from the rest of a deck.

Regards, Reto

There's a company that takes old decks, glues them up, and makes new decks from them.

WOW beautiful very creative use of an old skate board.

Oh Oh, now you have started something. I will have to dig out some cool clothes to go down the skatepark. Being 53 my usual clothes will just get me abuse

There is a guy named Larry Reaves on Instagram (username is larryreaves) who does a lot with old skateboard decks. Check him out. Very neat stuff.

Thank you very much.
It was a quick idea and the Boss from the skatepark tell me, that many children give him the old boards for make some pen's. That's very funny

My next idea is make an shaver (Razer?) with swatch parts on the tube
(Sorry my english is not so well)

Reto, nice pen and blanks, and there's not one thing wrong with your english. I'm very interested in seeing your shaver, please be sure to post a picture of it when finished.
