@Shrednaught hi do you have dimensions available for this board or template, love love this board, I bought a blank and this is the board I'd love to make Thank you very much
You make tables with a lot of class and style. Your designs are very inspiring. Thanks for uploading these videos. I would like to see one day, how you make a longboard. You are a teacher, greetings from the Canary Islands. Health!!!
Love the design. Modern rocker and tail with an old school beaked nose. Looks like it would go really well. Great paddler with plenty of performance Awesome color also. Love it.
Great to watch this video, good to see that the techniques for making boards have not changed since I last made one in 1998. I also made custom sailboards.
Please tell me how to contact for purchase. Your vids are fulfilling to the soul, your work is mesmerizing and ty for time well spent. Very impressive, Sir, great work!
@@Shrednaught thanks man! i'm trying to shape. still in the researching phase.. what's the roller for at 6:20 mark? last step is a gloss coat after fine sanding? really dig the great details on the fin box installation aspect. saw your DIY jig as well! excellent!
When doing a cut lap I use a hard rubber roller on the lap edge whilst it’s still a green. This pushes the raised part of the lap flush with the foam and takes away the need to sand that lap line before deck laminate I don’t gloss on this one. I use a clear acrylic sealer that I apply with a roller 🤙
Hey mate, I get most of my supplies from our local surf board building supplier. Colin Earle surf supplies. Online is always the best way to find someone close to you.
Can confirm. 2nd wave riding it I pulled into a little barrel and it was so easy...but I guess it always seems easy when it happens! Finding them is the hard part!
Yewww. Sweet video. Slow mo and music for the win. Best shaping videos! Whats your mix ration for the gloss cost you put down with the roller? Cheers legend
Hi, great job, I always see you doing amazing things, I really liked the tool you used to make the concave, what's the name of it.... don't stop, keep making these amazing boards..
Another great board. Two questions; 1-when you applied the deck logo, you don’t need to sand the edges flat before hot coating? Same with the bottom tail patch? I’ve been using this technique on the last couple boards but I figured I needed to sand the fiberglass edge flat. 2- after you sign the board and use the roller, that’s the glass coat, right? It didn’t look like the fin boxes were re-taped?! Never seen a roller used but looks like it works well without a lot of drip. I’m assuming it’s a foam roller. Anyway, sorry for all the questions. Your channel is full of great content and awesome boards🤙
Thanks mate. I don’t sand the edges flush but it won’t hurt. Just try to be neat and you should be all good. The roller part is a clear acrylic sealer coat. Not resin. Gives the board a nice finish and helps protect and seal. Cheers
I can’t remember the exact product name but I found it in a hardware store. It’s just a firm rubber roller so have a quick google and it shouldn’t be too hard to find.
Saves tape 😅 Hah the real reason is that I am able to push the resin around the rails and onto the bottom lap. Once it’s gone hard and I flip it , it allows me to easily sand that bottom lap nice and flush for fin box instal and to tap hard edges and do the final fill coat on the bottom.
@@Shrednaught I went back to PU. Bought two blanks the other day. Just shaped and glassed the asym and now shaping a mini egg. Quiver is at 6 boards. Can't wait for the winter. 🌊.
Having a board shaped on a cnc does make the experience a lot easier but it still requires some hand shaping at the end. It does depend on what you’re looking for? If you were thinking of making boards for yourself more so I’d say go with the handshaping and try learn as much as possible on the first because it’ll be rough.. but it’ll still surf.
Awesome board man! Thanks for such great content. I'm just finishing up my own first board and these vids really help. I like the finish you had with the acrylic coat and I am wondering what grit you wet sanded to, and since you are sanding - whether it matters if you buy a gloss or satin acrylic to begin with.
Thanks mate 🤙 the final sand of the acrylic is just to remove any dust zits that had settled. It was done with a 360 polish pad. Na it doesn’t really matter if you go gloss or satin I think.. after sanding it’ll probably look the same.
Thanks man. Yeh single from nose moving to a double through the fins to flat off the tail. I was considering V out the tail but I think that it wasn’t really needed with the design
The final coat I roll on is a clear acrylic sealer. Not resin. It’s just a cheap disposable foam roller. You can be them from any hardware for a couple bucks
Beautiful board -- reminds me of a Dick Brewer round pin I rode back in the day. Agree about the excellent editing. One question: What do the notches on the front edges of the fins do?
Thanks mate. I think you’re talking about the fins that I use to set the fin boxes with? Those notches are there to help when placing tape on the fins to hold the fin boxes down until they have cured.
Thanks man. I do the boxes after glass when doing a tint. I’ve found it to make the box install look cleaner. You can do it with epoxy but normally I’ve I’m doing a clear board I’ll just install them pre glass into the foam
Haha yeh pretty much. As much as I’d love to get a board over there it’s cost wouldn’t be worth it after shipping. You should try a local in California. There’s some absolute killer shapers over there 🤘
Well done Bro! Picking up heaps from your vids. Where did you source the long router bit to cut your outline? I've looked high and low at Bunnings. Also, I've been doing a couple of boards with alternative cloths ie. Basalt, flax, hemp combinations and PET cloth (recycled plastic bottles). A bit different to work with but nice boards aesthetically and kinda "feel good" with regards to the environment. The cost is a little higher than standard cloth which is a little discerning for the budget conscious but it'd be great to see you do a build with this stuff. Power On!🤙
Hey bru, why do you choose to use an orbital sander over a polisher to finish the board? You video inspired me so much I'm gearing up to shape my own board haha
Good stuff! I use the mirka orbital for 2 reasons. Firstly is dust extraction. Because I don’t have a dedicated sanding bay atm I needed something with a vac attachment. And secondly is that it leaves a much finer/nicer finish when doing the later grits for finish sanding.
As always great production man! That little sander does a great job for you! Is there an aftermarket pad on it and if so which one? Very used to guys having multiple machines with many density foam pads so love seeing this little yellow dude chugging along and still getting a great finish Thanks for being an excellent content creator I always look forward to a post by you.
Thanks mate. It’s all just standard. It does take longer than if I was to use a polisher / sander but it’s definitely worth it as it’s got dust extraction. A trade off that I’ll take any day 👌
@@Shrednaught Love the video. Can you say what model of sander from Mirka you're using. Trying to decide if i get a sander polisher, but this option looks more versatile for woodworking and other DIY. Thanks mate.
It’s a mirka deros 5 and I use the mirka pads to sand with. The advantage for me was the fact that it had a dust extraction and also the power to use 80grit and still get the board flush. Highly recommend although it is pricey.
@Shrednaught ended up getting the makita bo6050j which is working well for me so far. I'd imagine a little more cumbersome than your deros but has many of the same features and useful for the woodshop too 🤙
Came for the shaping, stayed for the sweet music. I think we'd all like to see weekly tutorials!
Yew! Choosing music takes me longer than editing haha
@Shrednaught hi do you have dimensions available for this board or template, love love this board, I bought a blank and this is the board I'd love to make
Thank you very much
Great edit! You show the perfect amount of each step. I am seriously inspired!!
Yew! Thanks 🤙
Dear Shred, you are a hard worker, but no harder than necessary. Fantastic methods.
Thanks mate. Appreciate it 🤙
I think... It's the Best i ever seen!

It takes so much comittment and effort to build these. Very impressive.
Thanks dude 🤘
Wonderful!! Big thanks! Well done!
Something very satisfying about watching this amount of work in a short video. Nicely done, your hot coat looks easy to sand.
Thanks mate 🤙
Yessss, another great video. Thank you for sharing thanks to you I made my first Fish. Thanks again from Belgium
Yew! Good stuff man 🤘
Love the design. Modern rocker and tail with an old school beaked nose.
Looks like it would go really well. Great paddler with plenty of performance
Awesome color also.
Love it.
Thanks mate. Yeh the design aspects were exactly that. Trying to combine the parts he loves most from both styles of boards.
Always stoked to see what your making.
Thanks dude
excellent work on the video and especially the custom board. see you on water... mahalo 🤙
Man this board looks perfect for me!!! Perfect dimensions for an all wave one board quiver!!!!
Yew!
FANTASTICO, GREAT GRETTING FROM BARCELONA FRIEND🤙
🤘
Love this board, such a clean design. Satin finish looks sick!
Thanks mate 🤙 appreciate it.
i don't even surf and this was extremely satisfying to watch!
Thanks Jack! There’s always time 😎
I like seeing someone make a roundtail. I surfed one a lifetime ago. A 6'8" single fin. Fast. Good board. Great video and beautiful board.
Thanks mate 🤙
Just a lovely looking board and great vid! Glad you're still doing vids. Got worried for a sec!
Thanks mate. Haha yeh still
Doing them although got a lot of other things happening at the moment 🤙
The board is sweet. I enjoyed this!
Thanks mate 🤙
Work of art man. Love the logo and graphics.
Thanks mate 🤘
board looks so radical.
it would be great if we could get a shaping bay and quiver tour sometime!
Definitely
Amazing!! I love to watch your work Bro. Greatings from Portugal

A lot of boards seem to be wide and square down back these days… That Fing has a beautiful shape… My kinda board…
Thanks mate. My friend wanted a board with the paddle power of a fish but a pulled in tail to help in waves with a more critical curve.
Nice vid as usual! Looking 4ward for another one :) cheers Milos/Apatyka
Thanks mate 🤘
you just eyeballed those lines for the rails and the cut lap?! amazing!
Haha I do scratch a little guide line on there but don’t tell anyone 😅
@@Shrednaught thanks man! i'm trying to shape. still in the researching phase.. what's the roller for at 6:20 mark? last step is a gloss coat after fine sanding? really dig the great details on the fin box installation aspect. saw your DIY jig as well! excellent!

Super dope !
Thanks dude 🤘
thanks again. killer vid

Very nice concept! Great looking board! I’m really curious how that board surfs/performs
He has had it for a few months now and tells me he loves it in a barrel 🎉
Can confirm. 2nd wave riding it I pulled into a little barrel and it was so easy...but I guess it always seems easy when it happens! Finding them is the hard part!
top content!!!! show man!!!!
Thanks mate 🤙
Hello,
What tools model do you use for "cut" the outline ?
And what tools model to polish tour glass?
Thanks you !
Hello bro nice job plz i have a question in 5:52 of the video you started to cut the borders, we do that before the resine get drying or before tnx
The cutlap is cut when the resin has hardened but not completely cured.
@@Shrednaught tnx so gentil from you i really apreciate that
Yewww. Sweet video. Slow mo and music for the win. Best shaping videos!
Whats your mix ration for the gloss cost you put down with the roller? Cheers legend
Thanks man. It’s not gloss but an acrylic sealer. Just roll it on and let it dry
Hi, great job, I always see you doing amazing things, I really liked the tool you used to make the concave, what's the name of it.... don't stop, keep making these amazing boards..
Thanks mate. I think it’s just called a concave / convex sanding block. I found it on a surfboard supplier website.
Another great board. Two questions; 1-when you applied the deck logo, you don’t need to sand the edges flat before hot coating? Same with the bottom tail patch? I’ve been using this technique on the last couple boards but I figured I needed to sand the fiberglass edge flat. 2- after you sign the board and use the roller, that’s the glass coat, right?

Cheers
Hey Shrednaught nice work..The light blue colour tint looks great..
Did you use a white base before adding the light blue? Thank you
Thanks mate. No white base. This colour is already mixed to that exact light blue colour.
Beautiful board. What oz glass do you use for finbox patches and for tail patch. Cheers
Just 4oz for the patches on this one. So double 4 overall
Just curious, why do you mark the outline if you just cut it with a flush cut router bit ?
What is the name of the roller that you pass to the deck lap? I had never seen it before! Great job!
I can’t remember the exact product name but I found it in a hardware store. It’s just a firm rubber roller so have a quick google and it shouldn’t be too hard to find.
Awesome 😎🤙🏼
🤘
Hey! What's that "loaf of bread" looking thing you keep laying on your boards when you're working??
Just a brick with foam and tape .. super high tech 🤣
Eyyy nice one! I noticed you didn’t do a tape lap on the top hot coat - any specific reason?
Saves tape 😅
Hah the real reason is that I am able to push the resin around the rails and onto the bottom lap. Once it’s gone hard and I flip it , it allows me to easily sand that bottom lap nice and flush for fin box instal and to tap hard edges and do the final fill coat on the bottom.
@@Shrednaught ahhhh nice trick! Cheater coat on the bottom lap + saves tape.
👌
Nice vid. U show put a vid of someone surfing it at the end
Definitely would love to do this. Photographers cost too much for me though 😅
@@Shrednaught Ahh that's understandable man. Great content either way! Good shit
Cheers dude 🤘
good job! what varnish do you use?
I miss PU. My next shape it'll be PU. Although epoxy ding less than PU, but I want to feel the tiny flex PU has. Nice shape here.
There is always room for an epoxy and pu in the quiver 🎉
@@Shrednaught I went back to PU. Bought two blanks the other day. Just shaped and glassed the asym and now shaping a mini egg. Quiver is at 6 boards. Can't wait for the winter. 🌊.
Yew! I do love asyms 🤙
What a magnificent blue!
What is the roller application at the end, if you mind me asking, ploise?
I had the same question
It’s a clear acrylic sealer. Gives the board a nicer finish and helps protect it a little bit
Would you recommend a first time shape be made in a CAD or just eyeball it and see what comes out and have a blast with it.
Having a board shaped on a cnc does make the experience a lot easier but it still requires some hand shaping at the end. It does depend on what you’re looking for? If you were thinking of making boards for yourself more so I’d say go with the handshaping and try learn as much as possible on the first because it’ll be rough.. but it’ll still surf.
Do you sand the line between tail patch over fins before you hot coat or not necessary? At this step in my build, thanks
If I understand the questions it isn’t necessary.
Awesome board man! Thanks for such great content. I'm just finishing up my own first board and these vids really help. I like the finish you had with the acrylic coat and I am wondering what grit you wet sanded to, and since you are sanding - whether it matters if you buy a gloss or satin acrylic to begin with.

Thanks mate . Yeh it’s an acrylic sealer coat.
Super Bomba di TAVOLA! 🤘💪💪💪💪
🤙
Great. Could you show me the tools
Looks awesome! Curious, what's the bottom contour? Single concave up front to more of a rolled v through the fins?
Thanks man. Yeh single from nose moving to a double through the fins to flat off the tail. I was considering V out the tail but I think that it wasn’t really needed with the design
Thanks for the vids 🤙🏻 What kind of roller are you using for the final hot coat ?
The final coat I roll on is a clear acrylic sealer. Not resin. It’s just a cheap disposable foam roller. You can be them from any hardware for a couple bucks
Il like to create my own long board like you your the best can you help me
Nice
Show us how you rip on the surfboards !
I wish I could find someone to film me kooking up every wave haha.
Didto sand it sir before the logo?
where you get that measure square. Board is so slickkkk
Cheers mate. I think it was either shapers or surfboard studio .com
Beautiful board -- reminds me of a Dick Brewer round pin I rode back in the day. Agree about the excellent editing. One question: What do the notches on the front edges of the fins do?
Thanks mate. I think you’re talking about the fins that I use to set the fin boxes with? Those notches are there to help when placing tape on the fins to hold the fin boxes down until they have cured.
Another great video!
I’m curious, why do you install the fin boxes after glassing? Do you use this technique with epoxy resins as well?
Thanks man. I do the boxes after glass when doing a tint. I’ve found it to make the box install look cleaner. You can do it with epoxy but normally I’ve I’m doing a clear board I’ll just install them pre glass into the foam
How can I get one sent to California? I’m impressed on the complete craftsmanship! What would it cost me for a board just like that? Then shipping?
One Billion dollaridoos
Haha yeh pretty much. As much as I’d love to get a board over there it’s cost wouldn’t be worth it after shipping. You should try a local in California. There’s some absolute killer shapers over there 🤘
Well done Bro!
Picking up heaps from your vids.
Where did you source the long router bit to cut your outline? I've looked high and low at Bunnings.
Also, I've been doing a couple of boards with alternative cloths ie. Basalt, flax, hemp combinations and PET cloth (recycled plastic bottles). A bit different to work with but nice boards aesthetically and kinda "feel good" with regards to the environment. The cost is a little higher than standard cloth which is a little discerning for the budget conscious but it'd be great to see you do a build with this stuff.
Power On!🤙
Found the router bit on eBay. Was pretty cheap. I’ve used basalt but never flax or hemp. I would like to use some so I might try do one in the future
Nice work, did you use four oz cloth for the tail patch?
Thanks mate. Yeh from memory it was 4oz
Awesome, now make make me a 6'6" tri fin swallow tail please 👍😎
🤘🤘
Hey bru, why do you choose to use an orbital sander over a polisher to finish the board?
You video inspired me so much I'm gearing up to shape my own board haha
Good stuff!
I use the mirka orbital for 2 reasons. Firstly is dust extraction. Because I don’t have a dedicated sanding bay atm I needed something with a vac attachment. And secondly is that it leaves a much finer/nicer finish when doing the later grits for finish sanding.
Hey mate! Do you recommend just resin or thickened resin when putting in FCS fin boxes?
If you can use milled fibre with the resin to try give it some structural strength.
As always great production man! That little sander does a great job for you! Is there an aftermarket pad on it and if so which one?
Very used to guys having multiple machines with many density foam pads so love seeing this little yellow dude chugging along and still getting a great finish
Thanks for being an excellent content creator

@@Shrednaught Love the video. Can you say what model of sander from Mirka you're using. Trying to decide if i get a sander polisher, but this option looks more versatile for woodworking and other DIY. Thanks mate.
It’s a mirka deros 5 and I use the mirka pads to sand with. The advantage for me was the fact that it had a dust extraction and also the power to use 80grit and still get the board flush. Highly recommend although it is pricey.
@Shrednaught ended up getting the makita bo6050j which is working well for me so far. I'd imagine a little more cumbersome than your deros but has many of the same features and useful for the woodshop too 🤙
I did look at these as well. Is it worth the investment?
Nicely done.Makes me want to get the shed again! The finish coat, was it resin or something else?
Thanks Jim. It is an acrylic sealer coat. Gives the finish product a nice satin/matte finish
Are you rolling on resin after the sanding coat or is that some kind of sealer?
And thanks for the vids!
It’s a clear acrylic sealer. Thanks for watching 🤙
