Hi, i'm going to buy parts to make a custom skateboard. I'm going to get a 7.9 inch board, 7.5 inch trucks, 51mm wheels, bearings, griptape and mounting bolts (hardware). I need to know how big the mounting bolts (hardware) have to be to fit the skateboard. From what I know, I think I need the 1 inch ones but they might be too small. PLEASE HELP!!! Thanks

A: Its best to get trucks around the same size as your board so maybe you should get trucks a bit wider.
7.9 board is good if your doing vert or are quite tall and have big feet i suggest bones reds bearings and the hardware doesn't really matter
for grip tape maybe jessup, pig or mob..... mob is the most gripy
51 mm wheels are better for street because there small if you are getting mid or high trucks go could go a little bigger with the wheel..... i recommendmend bones...

Bay Area collectors are out bright and early every weekend - usually with a cup of coffee in one hand and a measuring tape in the other - on their way to another flea market, garage sale or antique fair.

While some of them are looking for a beautiful antique clock or fine piece of china, others are on a hunt for an old-school 1970s "Partridge Family" lunchbox, a bobblehead doll or a pair of banana-shaped salt-and-pepper shakers.

Quirky collections are more popular than ever, and the memories they represent often outweigh their value. Considering the economy, it makes perfect sense.

"Everyday objects can be very beautiful," says Claire Bigbie of the architecture and design firm envelopeA + D of Oakland. "Stuff you found at the beach or things from the 99-cent store can be really wonderful if you display them in a thoughtful way."

But trying to incorporate Pez dispensers into your decor can be a recipe for disaster. Like many things we enjoy - from food to wine to tweeting - you need to know when to say when.

The hardware fit purely, I got it with unfettered shipping so the sell for wasn’t exceedingly a quandary. It fit tenser. The tops of the screws are painted pale. I believe that’s reputed to make out a head for it determined. I speculation it kinda looks unconcerned. The suggestion is, everything fit unalloyed. Then again, I hand-me-down a teach to put the hardware on so that might have made things a lot easier.
