i have made my own lifts with lexan in the past. But i also have a riveter and was able to put it back together myself. I have really wide feet and need the extra height to prevent me from bottoming out in turns. I also use Flare Skate Blades. It makes me able to get over on my turns a bit more also.

Anyone that has this Blademaster Power Riveter machine, what size air compressor is needed to run this pneumatic riveter (eg. 2 gallon or ten gallon, etc,,,). Also what PSI do you run it with?

thats great! I didn't know that stores carried the DLC black Flare steel. I will look into it at my LHS

I ordered from them directly

oops, i had to just delete a double post

I've had these for over a month now. I Iike them a lot. I have the DLC coated version for Bauer edge holders, 272, 1 1/2 ROH. I used to use 95/50 FBV or 7/8th ROH on stepblack steel. I feel like I am able to get the same bite on my turns without having to lean over as much. The glide is amazing! For me, I don't think I can switch back the regular shaped steel anymore.

Has anyone experimented with Blackstone FBV or the Blademaster version of the flat bottom on the Flareblades?

agreed,,, I have had pretty much the same experience with these blade, i have the dlc blades, had them for about a month now

yes, i have one

yes a lie4 !

did the holes for the LS2 holders line up exactly with the CXN holder holes? or were new holes drilled in to the boot?

yes

i just used masking tape. I didn't take off the holder. no finesse was really used. I did do 4 coats of plasti-dip. just remember to peel off the tape before the stuff hardens. other than that,,, its pretty easy to do. I didn't do the orange parts.

i have mako 7.5EE skates, the holders are size 263, i was wondering if i would be able to put on size 272 LS2's or the new edge holder size 272 on my skates? i know the holes probably wont line up and will have to drill new ones, but would there be any issues that anyone would know about?
