So I somehow destroyed the axle on my D-bearing Sky Walker and I’m in need of a replacement. Does anybody know what size axle it takes and, if so, where I can get it? Thanks in advance.

You might want to ask Heath Vizier on Facebook.

Just go to a good hardware store like jhb8426 suggested and ask them for “Set Screws”. They come in all lengths and diameters. You might want to stock up on a few of the most popular sizes since you’re there.

Then that would be an M4 set screw, 8 mm long.  
(M4 screw size is 4 mm x .7 mm pithch)

Just tried the axle from my Supernova. No luck there. I’m guess the later run Sky Walkers may have smaller axles. Looks like I’ll have to make a trip to the hardware store tomorrow.
