To turn a new surface on a set of used (or new) skate wheels, you will need access to a lathe and a special mandrel to hold each wheel.
This mandrel was made using some 22mm shaft (same size as 608 bearing OD) that I had laying around. I also ordered a 22mm collet to hold the mandrel for maximum precision.
A specially shaped bit must be used to cut urathane properly.
