anyone here shape?

beware the degenerative effects of "fumes."
its one of our untold stories.

 

True... That's one of the big reasons why I prefer epoxy. Keep it off your skin, avoid heavy duty solvents like acetone (white vinegar is all you need for cleanup), and recycle your off-cuts with all your other styrofoam. It's about as safe as you can get... human health wise and environmentally... for a foam-and-fiberglass board.

 

i'm tempted to tell my fumes story - BUT ITS SO FREAKIN BAD - that i won't.
suffice to say do not eschew what LBCrew says to you.

 

Actually, that 5'7" cookie would probably make a very nice kneeboard.

 

Latest experiment. (the center fcs fin was an after thought because it was a little too loose, I might make another one as a quad). I also tried my hand at making some maple FCS fins, yet to laminate those though (WATCH OUT ROY!) Glassing credit goes to Austin, he does amazing work and our home glass jobs were OK at best.

 

has anyone attempted to laminate a board using carbon fiber cloth? I want to try it but it's like $40/yard.

 

ur boards look legit,id buy one off of u if u lived in jersey.maybe u should start a little company as a local shaper.

 

I'm especially proud of this baby

 

that looks like the real deal, very nice. Is that a bit of entry concave I see?

 

Sweet clamps! There's always room for another.

 

OK let's hear your story baddy, I'm curious now, what happened?

 

Clamp game is strong son!




By the way, I broke one of the ribs trying to show off for you butts. Easy fix.

Here's my man cave I share with the roaches. Those mothafvckas have no mothafvckin shame these days. I'm thinking of nominating them for the state dog.


Tried to upload a panoramic. Couldn't do it... They tryna keep da white man down again.

 

ok - but the story gets dumbed down cause affected parties might be on this forum....

family 4, father shaper, he did murder/suicide of all, nobody (really) knows why....but he shaped fiberglass
boards and had just gotten a big sailboard order. had no record; no indication of what was to come....again,
nobody really knows why...but the arrows pointed towards the fumes...

 

Yikes, that's not what I was expecting. That's just turrible....

 

Now this is livin. did you get plans for the board or are ya just winging it? Show off some pictures

 

thanks, it's my fathers garage, he must have 1000 clamps. What do you buy the guy that has everything? More clamps.

 

I'm not cool enough to post photographs, but you can see some of my feces here:

Winging it. I started with some alaias but they're more trouble than they're worth. Tough to surf and it's very hard for me to dedicate a day of good waves to flopping around on them. I sold a couple and have a wall hanger.

Next was this beast. . This is WAAAAAaaay overbuilt. Basically a hollow battering ram. Fun to ride for a little bit and it gets some attention every time I take it out.

This one was my most successful one. Still heavy. Here's the fin set up. Sorry Chuck Taylor for bringing this up again.

More coming.
