I've used a thin white cutting mat from wal-mart sold in the cutting board section. I cut it to size and used heavy duty double sided tape to stick it around the bottom! Works great really and slippery as well!!
Now I just grind everything on the rocks

I think you need some of these:

The ones for the Bully axles are on page 3 and 4.

I am using the thin cutting board material as well.

I used both 3m double sided tape and some tie straps to make sure they stay on.

I'll probably upgrade to LoneWolf Disigns skids when I get the chance, but so far the Thin Cutting board is holding up fine and working.

I searched for those damn things--thanks for the find

Guys got any pics on the thin cutting board stuff on your rigs? I like to try and build it if I can---I am just that way

The small 5 hour energy bottles, same size as motos. The ends are curved in helps to cover endbell.

On a berg but same concept. Used a spare motor and heat gun to to mold some polycarbonate around the can and used double sided tape to stick them on.

I dont use anything to protect the endbells on my Bully's. Dont be scared of some scratches

Rattle can caps work awesome. just cut them in half and cut most of the top off and shoo goo them to the motor.
