    Hi,

    I’m building an ACRO system, I was following the build video for the wheels which says to use the precision shims as a space between the bearings. I was careless and didn’t realise there are only 9 such shims for 12 wheels and now I’m thinking I should have used a mini-precision shim as there are 24 of them.

    I can’t see myself being able to take the wheel apart without damaging it, so my question is:

    Do I proceed to make the remaining 11 wheels which the mini shims having 1 left over, and at a later point when I’m short one non-mini shim can I get away with using that left over mini one?

    Yes should be fine.
