I'll admit that I'm not the most green individual, but I do love to scrounge and reuse for cheap. One of my favorite shows growing up was Junkyard Wars.
I just bought a skateboard from my local Goodwill Outlet store for $2.11. I took photos to showcase the steps.
I took the board apart with a Phillips drill bit, a 1/2 in socket, and a 8 mm wrench.
After taking the wheels off I unscrewed the bolts from the trucks and was able to use the bolts to pull the bearings out.
After some clean up I measured the hardware to see what all I hauled in. Looks like I got 8 608ZZ bearings and 8 bolts with locking nuts. It looks like I can use these bolts for files that utilize M5 bolts without a lot of editing, or with a little editing I might be able to use them instead of M4 bolts.
Here are the pictures. Hope y'all find this useful. Share your scavenger deals too.
