How much is the total cost? Also, would it work to put a rubberized cover over it more like a treadmill? This would also allow modifications to easily measure distance run.
@MattLees-Nunan

It costs $200 to make. Yes, I suppose you could try putting a mat over it but you'd have to find a way that it wouldn't hit the sides as you're running along🤔
*edit Hi Matt, are your bearings flush/tight within the inner diameter of your tubing? I'm building my skillmill right now and the bearings are a little loose inside the pipes.
@MattLees-Nunan
3 жыл бұрын
Hi Jonathan! If they are a little loose then try putting some electrical tape around the bearing so it is tight around the tubing. In the movie you'll see that I put pop rivets on each side...This will stop it from hitting sides. Does this help?
@jonathansebastian8421

@@MattLees-Nunan Thanks for the swift response. The tubing I have is 1" OD, so I used 1.25" OD fender washers. Unfortunately, they are loose as well since nothing "pushes" them against the pipe openings like your rivets do. I'll think of a solution and try using electrical tape. Keep you posted!

Hi, sorry my bad English but I have a doubt, I don't understand the measurements. If the tubes are 25mm and 3mm thick it means that the internal diameter is 19mm (?), How do the bearings fit if they are 22mm?

Now a days. I am thinking about it... that how to make a treadmill at home. so Google brings me in your video. apparently, it seems a good idea. My ping is, it is making much noise while running. I think you could reduce the noise by using a rubber grip.

Can it hold 250 pounds or more really trying to take the weight off. Will it break during time? And how long will it last before breaking. I know these maybe not built for running, walking is good enough for me. Plus if you can build one for Me how much would you charge? Is $$ 300-400ish sounds good enough for you?
@MattLees-Nunan

It will hold 250 pounds as long as you follow the correct materials as labelled in the description. I'm not sure how long it would last...it all depends on how much you use it! I don't make and sell sorry, that's why I've created a video so that you can give it a go yourself😊

@@MattLees-Nunan thank you this video will help. I checked that a project like this for carpenter can charge $200-$600 on a small project and can go even go up to 800 high end. Depends how much you worked on it and how many accessories and light weight adding a motor etc etc. Not bad I was willing to buy one. Don't have time and the tools. Might have to rent it or buy them and return them to get my money back. From the tools.
After doing it, do you think that the pot rivets are necessary? I'm asking it you because the two side supports won't let the bearings move. Or what do you think?
