@@datapusher- thank you 🙌
Love this, so therapeutic, more of these vids 🤙🏻
@@Wellssshhhhh thank you! I just uploaded another one, so feel free to give that a watch too 🙂
does resin not get in the box when you glass right over like that without tape? i see it often but never understood how that’s possible
The first time I did it was by accident - forgot to tape the slot. Turns out if you saturate it carefully without flooding the slot then you can get away with it. Won't work with smaller side boxes, like futures as you'll definitely get resin in the screw hole. Thanks for watching!
really nice! Could you explain how you cap off your finbox with glass without resin going into it? I noticed you did without the tape, not stressful hoping resin won't leak in? @14:00
Well spotted. Yeah, pretty stressful the first time I did it, but I find if you saturate the cloth around the box slowly, i.e not just dragging loads of resin over it, you're golden.
Really enjoyed you taking this old blank and bring back to life!!! Very well done!
@@gordonguffin thank you 🙏
Straight money dog!

🏄🏽♂️🏄🏽♂️🏄🏽♂️🤙🏽
Welp there went 30 min of my life
Let’s do it again 😂more plz
Haha, well if you're learning something or enjoying it I'd say no time wasted 😉
all I could think about is all the boards I ruined because I rushed it trying to go surf :) lol@@Whitburn.Surfboards
great looking board! i love the sentimental poppy. but how did you deal with the raised stem of the flower when sanding? you didn't get burn through?
@@JasonLovering great question. I put a 4oz glass patch over it, and then did a hot coat over that, meaning when I sanded I could blend it all into a flat surface. It's not actually flat, but you'd need a micrometer to measure the raised bump haha
Cool video and great looking board. The stringer really is art in itself - maybe for the next board offset the logo and the pressed poppy to let the full stringer show thru.
Thanks mate, and yeah those are good ideas. There's still a lot of stringer on show even with them in the way though 👌👌
Cool vid, beautiful board. I would have like to have seen the finished coat polished, I think it gives them a better look and feel it gives a smoother flow.
Thanks! Polished surfboards are very nice, I do agree. However, one of the downsides is that they show scratches very easily, so for me personally that's why I like a sanded finish. Thanks for watching
nice workmanship
Thank you 🙌
Awesome board and great vid!
Well done. That stringer is awesome and the poppy is a nice touch 🍻
@@kc72186thanks. Glad you enjoyed it
sir i do have printable template of that? can i copy it? thank u...
@@champtiangson58 I'm afraid I don't have a printable file, but a good starting point would be to visit 'blending curves'. They have many board templates and you can select the sizes and then print them
Beautiful
Thanks very much 👍
Beautiful log
rad
inspiring now. need to repair a few of mine. 😂
Haha, no time like the present 😆
Where’d you get the long router bit?
Amazon, but I wouldn't recommend it. During use recently it bent, I think I'm lucky it didn't hurt me..
Wow, amazing work. That stringer looks so beautiful. That gave me some inspirations, to turn something rotten into magic. Thanx for sharing

Thank you!
u are a Master at your craft!
@@surdoemudo thanks 🙏
Absolutely beautiful, and the dimensions look perfect for small to medium glassy lines. A real work of art with the stringer and poppy accent. I really enjoyed the video as well, oddly relaxing to watch.
Cheers, I really appreciate that. A few more videos in the works, hopefully coming soon!
Amazing❤
Thank you!
Amazing content

Throuroughly enjoyed the process + shaping ASMR, came out great!
Thanks so much for watching and I'm glad you enjoyed it
Amazing wow
Thank you
nice work!
Thanks!
awesome
Thanks!
Epic
Thanks!
Where d ya get the modified Makita planer from, and , do you use a regular blade or a 'grit' style barrel?
I modified the planer myself. Currently modifying another planer, this time a Hitachi p20sb. I use a grit barrel, which I find especially good with EPS foam
Thanks mate@@Whitburn.Surfboards
I use an 18v at the mo. No cable to constantly get in the way and drive you nuts. But.... batteries don't last so looking at 230 and a mod. Great looking board , like your technique. 👍👍👍 As for the stringer, that's just something else. 👌
@@timdale4047 cheers mate! I used an 18v for a long time too and no cable was nice but the constant battery changes was a deal breaker for me. I have a Hitachi for sale if you are in need, or if you want to mod if yourself I can tell you the parts that I used for the mechanism
I saw a kit to mod a Makita online.
USD 400 plus postage.
Might be best to do it myself! 😂
Absolutely love this style of video - Cheers from Australia
@@harrisonbechly6397 cheers mate. It's been a while but a new one coming very soon!
What bit are you using?
It's a long router bit, but the shank ended up bending during use (wasn't even cutting any material at the time). I won't buy that bit again and won't recommend it as I consider it dangerous
I guess I'll mention it was a generic yellow router bit off Amazon in case anyone sees it and is tempted to buy it. Don't!
So glad this video came up on my feed! Very nice job and a pleasure to watch. A rookie question: do you clean and reuse the brushes, or is it more common to have them as disposal?
Glad you enjoyed it! That's a great question. The majority of people throw their brushes away after each use because it's easy and the brushes are cheap. Depending on the resin being used the brushes can be saved though. If you're using polyester resin then you can use acetone (not nice stuff), and epoxy white vinegar works well. I try to save every brush, but admit I do forget sometimes if I'm busy working on multiple things. If that happens I'll break the brush down, with the wooden handle becoming firewood, the metal part going in the recycling and the hardened bristles going in the bin.
@@Whitburn.Surfboards Thank you very much for the tips! Acetone sounds nasty indeed. Will be looking forward to the future videos, although realize this kind of projects may take a while!
@@1001Bull I have another video in the works but it's a really long one to make! Stay tuned
Awesome ! What a work ! Well done mate , olso love the vintage style

Thanks mate
Most shapers don't glass. Impressive you do both, and with talent for both. You explain much of the process, but details like shaping rocker and concave along with resin/ catalyst mix and just getting the right curve to the masking tape take years to learn.
Since some aspiring sharper or glasses might be watching, I'll just throw in the importance of wearing the best masks money can buy. Super Dangerous dust and fumes.
You're absolutely right, there's so much more to say. I could have spoken for the entire video and some! Masks are very important as you say, I like to use extraction systems when sanding and using the planer for that reason. I rarely use polyester resin but do always wear a mask when cutting fibreglass and using epoxy too. Appreciate your comments, I'm still learning and have a long way to go 👍
