thanks a lot, I really appreciate it!

@@woodyfarmersbigjaunt hey! I was just wondering what wood, glue, etc did you use for this?

@@brettholland7040 I used pine 1x4’s but any good hardwood should work just nothing soft like cedar. I use West system marine epoxy to glue all the boards together and then I also use that to seal the board up after everything is done. Marine epoxy is way more expensive than wood glue but it’s essential if you want your board to last. Hope that helps 🤘

@@woodyfarmersbigjaunt thanks!!

Thanks for watching man!

BADOLDBIKER thank you

Thanks I appreciate it! Yes I seal all my boards with epoxy, I like to use a tabletop or marine epoxy and pour it over the bottom of the board until it drops over the edges then use a brush around the edges where it’s drips. Hope that helps

seller559 oh yeah 🤘

Thank you! I do it like table top epoxy, so I just pour it thick enough that it self levels and runs off the sides, it uses a lot of material but creates a really durable thick base

Thanks, it really depends on how you build the board and seal it. I use a lot extra by pouring a tabletop style layer on the bottom rather than rolling or brushing it on but I’d say I could probably get 3-4 boards out of a gallon of resin.

DV TRAVELING I use the west system marine epoxy but any marine epoxy should work

I don't have any board to compare with :(

Thanks! It’s a been a while since I built it so I don’t remember everything but I always build my boards 40 inches long and 15.75 inches in the middle with an 3 stage abrupt rocker line with roughly a 15 inch flat spot in the center or the rocker, sorry I don’t have more info, hopefully that helps a little

On this board I used some old aquarium grip tape that isn’t available anymore but I’ve found that mob grip from a skate shop works the best, the logo is just a T-shirt logo cut out and inlaid in the epoxy sealant

Thanks! I don’t remember the exact weight but it was about the same as a typical board like a watermonsters or remote

Thanks! I just did a layer of glass on the of this one but the boards where I glassed both sides did hold up better. I think a sheet of clear hdpe on the bottom would be the best solution, I just don’t have a press or vacuum bag to do it.

@@woodyfarmersbigjaunt thx

Landon Garrett I use West Marine epoxy with the slow hardner to adhere the pieces together and also to seal the board, if you use wood glue or cheap epoxy the board won’t hold up, also you can throw a sheet of Fiberglass over the bottom to hold it all together even better. As far as a template goes I would take your favorite board and use the rocker line from that (I like an abrupt 3 stage with a 15-16 inch flat spot in the center) since that is what effects the ride of the board the most and then draw out the concave to your liking so you can do steep or mellow, short or long kicktails etc. Also just so you know there’s a good chance that it will cost you more to build the first one than to buy a deck from a brand like Watermonsters or Virtue but if you enjoy the work it’s worth it and once you have all the tools it gets cheaper, and you can build multiple boards from one kit of epoxy. Sorry for the long winded response, hope it helps ya out

Different Frequencies really appreciate the fast and detailed response, I do very much enjoy projects like these and putting in the work, custom is always better!

I just cut 1x 6’s to size for the nose and tail and 1x4 for the side concave. Then use epoxy and c clamps to glue them to the deck. Once everything cures sand it down to get the shape you want. I like to start with a flap disk on a grinder then smooth everything out with a palm sander. Hope that helps

Actually I forgot on this board the nose and tail concave is built into the stringer then I just used 1x4 for the side concave

JESKO pine

also how do you epoxy the pieces together?

Seal the whole board with epoxy, just use epoxy and clamps to glue everything together

Ralfs Freibergs it’s 40” long and 15.75 inches in the center.

@@woodyfarmersbigjaunt Thank you! Great vid bdw.

Yeah it’s 3/4 thick and the concave is 1 1/4

@@woodyfarmersbigjaunt sick thanks I made mine 1” on ends not knowing haha but might just laminate on 1/4”

How much rocker did you make? I did 2” and I’m thinking it might be way to much

I think it was 1 1/2. Your best bet is to just take a board you like and trace that rocker, the length of the flat spot in your three stage rocker will have a big effect of the speed of your board and how it tracks/pops

@@woodyfarmersbigjaunt ok thanks and yeah I don’t have another board to get specs off thanks again
