    I just went to a boltshop and bought screws similar to the ones that you normally use on a skateboard, but they didn't have Allen heads they only had Philips which is the same thing. They're identical except they're just longer. The ones me and my buddy used were 3.5 inches long and we just tightened them with Nylock bolts. Make sure you get the flathead ones so the screws can sit flush into the board!

      Alright thanks so much. And Would Wal-mart boards work for test boards? and Did you have to bend the trucks at all?

        Built my own suspension to be different and not have ugly trucks stick through.

            Here is my longboard from a few months back. It was too low to ride as it would scrape when I got on it. I have some 74mm Sector 9 wheels sitting in my garage, just need to find the time to fit them.

                          This is my try at making the board. Horrible but I know what to get and what to do for the next one. Good thing it was a walmart board. Let me know what you think of this one.

                            this is all I got, I shaped the plate to the boards curves and welded and ground the bolts smooth that attach the plate.

                                LOL nice try! but i think longboards are too flexy to make into slamboards
