    That's sick dude. Your a wicked artist. I've never seen something like that in a homeade board

    Cool mould. I'm a waterman and working with some plywood and putting them in the mould and turning them into "Hawaiian Paepo'o boards (paipo board)" and I'm trying to break down the sizes of wood from half inch to 3/8" for mould. But I like your 1/8-1/8 with glass between and into the mould. Epic vid bro! Thanks

    On one of my favorites I used 1/8" 1/4" 1/8" with wood glue, no fiberglass. Just about the best board I've ever made

    If you do an epoxy top coat, (West System) and then white fine sand in a salt shaker to sprinkle onto the top coat epoxy, it gives you an almost permanent non skid. You can also do a stain on the wood or a graphic on the deck before hand.

    Cool I got to try that! I'm glad I'm not the only one that is regular and that pushes with my back foot! If anything you should sell materials in packs for the polyurethane, and fiberglass! Great video

    Suggestion for you single fliptail long board I dont see them anywhere. I bought an old longboard then recutting it to my style then going to airbrush it.
    its a single tail wood board then going to put some high quality trucks and wheels.

    Dude that is a fantastic deck, it looks like one you could pick up in a store!
    I can't wait for the video on how to make the press, that way I can really start from scratch.
    I myself was thinking about getting into taking some of my older beat up decks and making them into cruiser/mini cruiser decks, do you have any tips you could pass on?

  • @jeremyjohann2609

    Please put up a vid of how you built your press!!! SO MUCH FLEX in the composite build-up! AWESOME!!
    I missed it - how many layers of 1/8" ply?
    The Press is the genius. How did you build the camber and concavity into the press? It's important to know...

    how do you make this more or less flexible

  • @joshcloutier5184
    @joshcloutier5184 10 лет назад

    Seems way to flexy for my liking if you use more plys of birch will it make the board harder? I use 4 to 5 plys and always a cross grain but I haven't been fiberglassing. It's something I want to try if it makes them stonger.

    Can you go over how you put the boards together in a bit more detail? I'm trying to build a deck myself with 1/4" Baltic birch, and I wanna do this, but I wanna make sure I do it correctly. And what were the dimensions of your deck?

    How much epoxy did you use?

  • @ijoLongboards
    @ijoLongboards  11 лет назад

    Agreed and it is. The cost is funny... I can make 8 full decks for around $12 with about two days of labor. Or I could make one deck for $25 it all depends on how many you want to make with the material you buy. One sheet of 1/4"x4x8 cut into 9 equal pieces and 6 sheets of 1/8"x30"x48" baltic birch gets me 9 decks. thqat $120 in wood material divided by 9 is $12.20 plus $17 for a gallon of wood glue. I can make all 9 decks simultaneously and have them done in about 2-3 days. Pretty cheap!
