Mark, I used this on my board for a logo of sorts... scot logo.jpg also used the name of my grandfathers racing boat, Mak' Siccar I have the fin plugs in and semi ground down. I am banned from doing the sanding at home due to the dust i left everywhere last time so have to try and get a friend who d...

i just did the fill coat on the bottom on mine.
turned out better than the last one, thanks for the tips Ric.
just fin plugs, leash plug and sanding to go.

sorry Mark this one is plain white.

ric, is that the same process with epoxy?

well that was a bit harder than i thought it would be. i got the smallest plane i could find and had a dig at the stringer. tore a bit of the foam up on the side of the stringer but managed to get that out as much as i could. bottom is a slight single concave with pretty medium rails. the rail edge ...

So I started sanding the ridges smooth and fine tuning the rails. Looks alright so far. I think I am way too clumsy to be a shaper tho, I put a few bumps and marks in it already. Hopefully they dont show up too much when its finished. some progress shots (from my crappy phone so sorry about the qual...

Mine was going to be a quad but know i'm thinking of doing it with 5 plugs for 3 or 4 fins. still not 100% sure yet. and Mark I ordered the blank before i got the quadfather. I wanted to have a go of the quadfather cause it was pretty close to what I wanted to build. I have read a lot of good stuff ...

Mark, I am doing a pretty standard 6'2 x 19 rounded pin. its actually pretty similar to the quadfather in outline. i just took one of the template files from boardcad and tweaked it till it looked right. sent it off to miki from aps3000 and he fixed the file so it would cut ok and picked it up a few...

Sorry to hear about your mum digger. If you extend it to the goldy, i'm in for the challenge. I finished my first board in june and it came out a bit small for me, so i ordered another blank and have a few weeks free to get into it. the first one i started from a block of eps and I hotwired the rock...

Mark, The waves have been pretty bad since i got the board but I have managed to get out at dbah for 3 quick surfs. monday was the best as it was clean but only knee - waist high. after a few nice little waves I am a bit reluctant to give it up. the board goes good. its a bit longer that my usual sh...

There is a real surf clubhouse but it looks like most are over it as everyone has 0 points.
