Yep,they're about to shit themselves.(3.7mm).I'm using hotmelt glue sticks as bolts for safety reasons.

I figured I got one more proper stop left in the discs so I'm saving them up for something worth stopping for.
Meantime,foot dragging allows coasting to a stop and I look cool doing it.

A charming, thoughtful and pleasantly morbid gift from your dutiful daughter.
