Great information! Can't wait to give this a huck! I've always gone from the top, like u said it looks like side ways is the way to go all day, thanks man!
Man. Been looking for this info for days! Thanks. You were talking about mounting the router so you don't have to go handheld. What's the best way to do that?
Awesome tutorial. Question: I am trying to make a deck that has a 7.126 into a 7" nose.. just would like the nose a little shorter for my skating. 0.126 equals 1/8th? correct? my confusion is where to start the trimming process for the nose? behind the front truck holes? middle of truck holes? as for measuring deck from bottom of top bolts on the nose is where it starts to narrow out. Also, if wanting to make the deck a 8.38 from a 8.5, would you slim off 1/16th on each side? or just go for 1/8th on one side? any info would be awesome! thanxz!
I've never had the need to do that, but I'd imagine you could use a router and a template to hog out that area. Ive seen many videos on youtube of folks making jigs to hog out material in other woodworking projects. Take a look on youtube for something that could be applied to your usecase.

Just emailed you how to do it 🤙
For someone with no access to a drum sander, what's the next best and cost efficient method for similar results for smooth rounded side rails? Thanks
Palm sander with 120 grit, then 220 grit. Hand sand with 400 grit. That’s what we did before getting a drum sander. Worked great, it just took longer.
How would you route a 1/8 square channel nice and clean to mount trucks deeper in the board to reduce overall height?
