Re: New AndyMark Product Game Hint???
Does $6 for a 2" wheel seem a bit steep to anyone else?
[EDIT: just saw how expensive the tear drop flex rollers are!!!]

Re: Strange Swerve 4.0 Triple Strange 1533
Fantastic. We've been toying with swerve all summer (mostly in design) and it didn't turn out this slick.
