Here's my tutorial on how to build your own skates using Vans or any other shoe you may have.
Tools used (yours may vary depending on your plates & trucks hardware):
-Ruler
-Marker
-Drill
-Pilot bit**
** a bit that's smaller that 1/4in
-1/4in drill bit
-Wrench
-3/8th socket/wrench for the plate hardware
-1/2 socket for wheels
-11/16th socket for trucks
Skate Supplies
-Vans (1/2 size larger than your usual size to compensate for the added metal insole)
-Metal Insoles (I got mine from RollAround shop on Etsy)
-Plates (mine are powerdyne reactor neos)
-Toe stop (mine are Grindstone heartstoppers)
-Washer & Lock Nut for toe stop
-Wheels (mine are Chaya neon wheels for outdoor skating/ hardness 78A)
-Bearings (mine are Bones Reds Bearings/ standard size)
-Skate Hardware for bolting plates to the shoe (your plates should have them, but I bought the hardware kit from RollAround shop on Etsy & recommend using that instead)
