Our next steps following the completion of phase 3 are:

• Pilot projects: Implementing the newly designed system in real-world contexts.
• Events: Demonstrations at festivals, educational institutions, sports events etc.
• Media creation: Publishing skate videos, pictures and any other medium suitable to showcase the decks and system. 
• Research: Open-source research to further develop the production system, its useability & surrounding technologies. E.g. trial production and material and technique experimentation.

A part of this will be developing the next iteration of our mould, following the public feedback cycle. (One of the many things that make open source great 😉 )  We are collecting feedback from people who are currently replicating, and soon to be using, our system. After the frequency of the feedback slows down, we will harvest and compile everything into a second iteration of the mould, this is where you can help!

If you are planning to replicate our mould, here are our identified areas of improvement based on our own six months of testing, this list can act as a foundation for anyone who wants to make their own  iteration of  our system:

• Add a cooling system
• Include threads in the drawing
• Thicker release nuts & laser cut removable release nut protection "pucks" to protect aluminium
• 30mm deep bolt holes on the top aluminium block
• Hinges on the electronic box
• Clean all leftover dimensions in parts
• Threads BSP nozzle in CAD
• Welds in drawings
• Guide rails for lowering the top face
• Variable chamfer on the middle aluminium block that follows the deck profile
• Add part numbers to BOM
• Building step by step pictures
• Safety data sheet
• Maintenance list
• Building flowchart
• Entry and exit tap
• 4 Bolts to join the bottom plate to mould the aluminium edge, for rigidity
• Two rows on end plates for rigidity
• M5 grub screws in truck holes
• Make entry and exit holes threadable M8 Grub Screw
• Make table legs further apart (Outside of the bottom support structure?)
  
  You can send us your feedback here, we can't wait to see what you all come up with!

Sharing our posts and spreading the word about our project opens a lot of doors for us! We are also very keen to hear about any collaborations or opportunities you guys see!
