  1. Okay.. This might be a stupid question but what is a grind plate? If it
    is for grinding:p then where does it go on the uni?

  2. It goes on the pedal. it helps metal pedals slide faster and protects
    stuff. Somebody else might be able to give some better info I just
    gave a little

  10. use the cuttingboard. i use that method, and it works great.
    you can get enough material to make multiple sets (like 3 or 4 sets)
    for the cost of a pair of danscomps.

  12. I made a cuttingboard one simmilar to the danscomp one, but it is pretty
    heavy. I slides well though.

  14. Or you can just remove all the pins out of one side of the pedal and
    make sure that side is completely flat. That works and its free and on
    magnesium slides like a dream.

    i like putting the plate on the pedal because the weight of it makes
    the sliding side always down and i can always have a grip
