Wooden Surfboard from a Fly Screen Door.
I made another wooden surfboard last year and a super short slideshow. Nothing like my previous labour of love.
Here's the link to that video, ruclips.net/video/N5py3SryE_g/видео.html
I had no intention of making another and repeatedly said as much to my darling wife. Anyhow, I was cleaning up in the shed and this old cedar flyscreen door had been sitting there for about 10 years. I looked at it and thought, well, no good for a long board, but… I had access to a laser-cutter through work, so I found myself back at the computer playing with ideas around a super high volume short board. I used a combination of BoardCAD, Slicer and Illustrator to design, slice and then add the 200 elliptical ...

Every time I loaded a bike onto this rack I found myself thinking, my mum could do this! We did miss a couple of bits such as the front loop and I didn’t put the pin into the end of the safety but this was our first attempt and I wanted to just leave it as it happened’ Classic from my mum! 🤣
I Made a Wooden Surfboard

I made a wooden surfboard a while ago, as well as this video. Took me about 6 months, on and off, to make this thing and a learnt a lot, having never done anything like this before. Having access to space and equipment at work was handy but there's nothing here that a person needs to do that couldn't be done at home. I did crazy things like make my own leg rope plug and so on - as if the job wa...
Very tasty indeed, and I do appreciate a chap who goes out to the garage or workshop in his best clothes…🤙🏼
nice job sir.. may i ask where can i get templates? thank you in advance...godbless
What kind of Awesome clamp 🗜️ is that!!??😅 PVC? Those are Awesome 👏🏼 Great Edit Amazing Board absolutely Phenomenal!!!
u are an artist ♥♥♥♥♥
Perfection. And a well-edited video.
Hello my friend How can i get the cutting drawing of main structure
Excelente trabajo!👌 saludos desde Tenerife🍀🏝️
Thanks for taking us on the journey. What a beautiful board and piece of work.
Great piece of work!!! I did the same myself, first ever. Made a lot of mistakes, rushed too much, but turned out quite OK. I am going for my second. I did learn some tricks watching your video, so thanks! Best, F.
A fascinating and relaxing video that is worth watching from start to finish. And what can I say about the work, I don't have better words to say how incredible it turned out, but it is impressive. I watched several similar videos, which were good, but this one is the best of all. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Bloody good job!
Sensacional !!!
Thoroughly enjoyed it.
I really liked watching your process. Did you just 'glass the fin in place?
Yep. Actually, it is the only part of the process I didn't really video and I really wish I had. I used the usual method which includes twisting lengths of fiberglass strands soaked in epoxy and building up a layer of glass and epoxy around the base of the fin. Obviously there are heaps of videos out there detailing this process but I wish I had videoed this as I did so on my board! Cheers, Sean.
I have made about ten of these boards. I appreciate the steps you took in regards to detail on the vent plug and the treatment of the interior of the board. Isn’t the best part when you wet that board with resin and watch the grain pop out at ya?
Amazing grace
Beautiful build 👌 well we'll put together video too. In just about to start my first wooden board and so excited to experience the process. Having been a carpenter for 13 years in surprised I haven't done this sooner, hopefully it all goes okay, no doubt I'll come back to this video to reference throughout my build
Nice build, I like very much the idea. But how is it to surf a wooden surfboard ? Rails need some knowledge..., and bottom contour seems difficult to be other than more or less flat. Putting some varnish on the inside add some weight to I guess an already heavy board. How is it to surf it ?
Surfs beautifully and a lot better than I really hoped for. It turns incredibly well for a long board and it is my 'go to' when the conditions suit a long board rather than short.
Special man
Wha t an artist ! Beautiful ! Adorable relationship with daughter as a father makes me think of my boys
Gracias
Buenos días amigos me gustaría hacer una tabla de esas para regalar a mi hija, me gustaría saber si me pueden enviar a mi correo las plantillas para poder hacer el patrón, gracias omar de Venezuela
This was a fantastic video! I had such great memories building big projects with my sons, and I can’t wait to build surfboards with my granddaughter. Hopefully we can surf together for a very long time. Even as important, build boards with my boys again… very special video!
Amazing mate. I made one on a course very similar to your techniques. Nice one!
Beautiful work of art, i would like to try to build one myself could you please share the digital plans you used please. appreciate it thanks.
Magnifique...
Beautiful work. Thanks for sharing! Congrats from Argentina, in the south atlantic coast.
Thank you! Cheers!
Beautiful work, thanks for sharing the process with us. Where did you learn to do the hollow rails?
Thanks Mike. I learnt the rail process through a combination of the wood tech teacher at my school, RUclips videos and experimentation. This 'cove and bead' method was extremely satisfying but also very time consuming. Next time around I would be inclined to simply stack 6x4mm strips (6 to 8mm high) on top of each other along the length of the rail. This would result in a sort of stepped finish that I would simply shape up using a block plane. The cove and bead involver a whole lot or steaming and bending to cope with the vertical orientation that gradually changed into a horizontal orientation at the end of each strip. Anyhow, once done it was so good but did take a huge amount of time.
@@seanfitzgerald5403 Thanks Sean, the cove and bead looks great and I am sure saved some weight as well. Congrats on persevering! I've done the solid rails process and it gives a lot of flexibility when shaping the rails but it does add more weight to overall build.
super impressed Fitzy. Next project, an Ark!
Hola amigo estoy iniciando un proyecto con una mini Malibú de 8 pies, viendo tu vídeo pasabas una plancha sobre el deck, esto para que sirve? Saludos
Some of the cedar required bending which is much much easier once it has been steamed. I actually split the top deck - as you see in the video - when I attempted to shape it up dry but once repaired I was able to steam it like crazy and then it bent to the shape. All a bit nerve wracking! Parte del cedro requería doblarse, lo cual es mucho más fácil una vez que se ha cocido al vapor. De hecho, partí la cubierta superior, como se ve en el video, cuando intenté darle forma en seco, pero una vez que la reparé, pude vaporizarla como un loco y luego se dobló para darle la forma. ¡Todo un poco estresante!

Nice work on the board, addition to detail is next level. What software did you use to create the inside frame?
AkuShaper. Then I used a program that I can't even remember the name of to convert the files into a full sized printable version that I printed on A3 and stuck to the ply.
