Thanks Kazuna Master Shaoer. Would You inform us what is this Fred tool angle?! What would be the different Fred tool angles we should have on the shaperoom?! Thanks in advance. All The Best. Marcos Rabello from Brazil

Hi, Enjoy watching your vid's. Can you tell me, what is it when the bottom rail is hard and not beveled. The best surfboard I had in late 60's was a hard down rail surfboard from top to bottom. Narrow in nose a bit and more parallel rails. I never see boards on any of the YT vids' that the shaper does a hard down rail. It worked great, and don't see the drawback? I know I am missing something? Can you please tell me why everyone bevels the down rail so much now? In the boards I have now also. I just had one built and the shaper could not bring himself to do what I asked. So I am guessing it is something shapers just don't think works? It does btw. Thank you!
The soft, tucked under edge is the most popular because it is the most forgiving. I know what you are talking about because I had many magic down rails. So fast and responsive.
@@kazumasurfboards Hi, thank you! I have tried to explain and just had a board made and he said he understood, but not close. I have thought maybe the only way I can get another is to shape it myself, so watching your videos... but am old and doubt my ability (;-}... I know what a great board it was for.. chest high to above. Thank you !
@@kazumasurfboards It is the reason I have come to think of doing it for sure, lol... but watch you and understand there is more to it than my "eye" can see. More steps, or rather, a lot of steps I am not sure about. But have spent a lot of money and didn't get what I want at all, and am reluctant to have someone do it "for" me again. I really admire guys I have talked to, even the last person, who did make me a board, but think .. well maybe past acceptance or belief of what can or could work.. maybe? Of what a shaper thinks works.. .limits him on what he is "seeing"? .. Don't know, but have talked to Rusty of Rusty surfboards, and he would do what I wanted to a point.. and then told me, I would "love" what he wanted... ? Really? lol... And I had one person who is good really here in PNW make a board, but they also couldn't or can't .. I guess.. believe it would work... so can only go as far as they think it will... Is that the problem? I know I used the same words to them as i did to you.. lol.. and you understood..
Cool ! how far into the rail do u have to take it? like the top rail bands are mesured 1/8' inch from the buttom right? do u do the same for the tucked under edge with any dims from the top ?
Thanks for sharing this tip!

34 degrees is a good angle
Perfect 👍👍👍👍

@@OneDayCloserToHim. That is one of the main reasons people start to shape. Getting what they want.
