What the Puck?!

Not many people saw my first attempt at making slide gloves.  I spent a grand total of $2.18 on my first try.  I bought a set of gloves and a cutting board at a dollar store, and gave it a shot.  Well, I opened the cutting board to find out it was plastic.  Then, I realized that I don't own any tools.  So...I broke the cutting board (it was just plastic after all) and used shoe goo to apply it to the gloves.

They were terrible.  I was embarrassed to wear 'em.

So, I heard about Phat Deanz slide pucks.  You can buy them with velcro included.  My lack of tools problem was solved for less than 20 bucks delivered to my doorstep.

 

Here is what I did to make my new slide gloves:

1. Cut velcro to the proper size and fasten one piece to the puck


2.  Shoe goo the other pieces to the glove (shoe goo is supposed to help because the 'sticky' from the velcro is meant for things that don't bend...and of course your gloves will bend).


3.  Stick them all together and put them under something heavy to press them together while the shoo goo dries.


Done.  Less than 20 bucks spent...now, to heal up this sprained ankle so I can try them out.  I'll let you know how they work.
