Whats he doing, marrying well and saving his back, knees, lungs and elbows.More power to him.

"Homebake homes

The founder of the Homebake music festival, Jessica Ducrou, has listed her three-bedroom Byron house for $1.75 million. Ducrou and local surfboard shaper Dain Thomas recently paid $2.65 million for a 107-year-old house nearby. Ducrou co-produced the 2010 Splendour in the Grass festival, which moved from Byron to Woodford, Queensland, this year after locals complained about festival overload in the district."

Dain didn't seem to shape many boards but the boards he shaped were top quality. Hope he resumes shaping again as I'll put a new order in. He was shaping a few Zed boards last year..
Can't see your point about marrying well.

That's a great looking board at a good price. A new one would have been around $1300 a few years back making this one very attractive.
Het batoes, don't take up smoking again mate, it looks like these cigs are from Russia and still might have the Chernobyl taste, but at $20 a carton they're tempting. :lol:
