Building my first wooden Surfboard (Hollow core wooden surfboard)

[@williamwatson8496]

Nothing like the smell of resin in the morning. A ton of work and a great outcome.

[@erinsmith7219]

This creation brings back the "Artistry" that has been slowly fading, since the inception of Computer based surfboard shaping, hit the market and exploded. From my perspective, even if you don't know how to surf, that would make a great conversation piece in any persons home! For those who do surf, it's a beautiful piece to exhibit at the beach and in the surf line up!

[@simonstucki]

nice board, also nice to see that someone is using his x-carve for something that actually makes sense!

[@erinsmith7219]

Hot damn, this is more "old school" than I would have thought! I have seen "hollow, wooden made boards," but have never had the opportunity to try one in the surf, but have read up on them, and now in seeing the video, it's actually refeshing to witness, one being built in such a fashion! Magnificent!

[@erinsmith7219]

Was just thinking, that if we were allowed to build such as these in "wood shop class" it might have been a totally different scenario, when I was in middle and High school, that is for damn sure! This would have made me come to school and stay in class, totally absorbed and wanting to learn more!

[@BrianJNoah]

So cool. It looks so great.

[@mprice7676]

What a beautiful and tedious project! It reminds me of building balsa wood model planes...the detailed inside stretchers if you wanna call them that. Anyways, very cool board, and I hope you and your nephew enjoy the water, but more importantly, enjoy time with each other!

[@weighed11]

Awesome project and very cool sir

[@hspringsteen]

Looks really cool Jord. Love that you are going to do kits.

[@KennethSievers]

Wow, Great job on that one!!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@imperialguard13]

great choice of music. had a nice surfing vibe to it.

[@bradyburguieres5880]

I’m glad you mentioned 123d make I’m trying to make a wakesurf board but can’t find any plans for one I’ve been familiar with board cad but this should be really helpful!

[@titowambuch1080]

this is more than awesome..... thnks for the idea

[@tompritch56]

Very impressive job. Hope it worked as well in the water as it looks.

[@jimgam730]

Love the board and the video. Thanks for sharing. Can't wait for your next video.

[@berniesr]

Great project really interesting to see how it all goes together. It reminds me of wooden aircraft construction. Well done

[@hdwoodshop]

Simply amazing. Beautiful boards also.

[@motzemog]

Mind officially blown. Great work and can't wait to see future videos of the detailed process.

[@chemcody5119]

Cool! Looks very similar to the model airplanes we used to build!

[@NearbyCactus]

[@luke.hutchinson]

[@Andrew-dm8mk]

[@lemkestaring]

wow

[@woodandmetalandstuff]

Very nice mate

[@n8guy]

Super, super awesome!

[@CaptainNormal]

Hi Jord. I've built a few kiteboards. I found using epoxy as the outer layer had two problems: It quickly yellowed from sun exposure, and it scratched up easily. I found a two-part linear polyurethane designed for yachts which did a supreme job of keeping the surface nice. (ps: That is a supreme job you've done. Respect!) - Jeff

[@JordsWoodShop]

+Jeff Rickard I will look into the polyurethane, thanks jeff!

[@islandsurf2499]

Great work looks beautiful .... how much dos it weight ??

[@supersonicCoach]

really cool

[@shaunbarrickman6339]

Super cool

[@theds2003]

Brilliant

[@matt_williams1015]

[@Retroweld]

Great editing Jord! I wish we could surf in Memphis. Thats awesome! Douglas

[@JordsWoodShop]

+RetroWeld Cheers mate!

[@rickndianacom]

Great job and very curious to see how it holds up. Certainly not knocking the design, I'm just ignorant to only using one center and 2 side rails for fastening down the top and bottom. Let us know in time! But all in all I'd say your hard work and time were well worth it! Thanks, Rick

[@rickndianacom]

+rickndianacom - OK I did some searching and to seems this is where most designs have gone. Thanks again I learned something very interesting, could cut down a lot of weight.

[@abdoucsgo2839]

amazing

[@willferrel6896]

Love it woukd love to get a list of supplies, and tools, what type of wood and how thick

[@Paulinodiazlorenzo]

Muy buén trabajo,saludos.

[@vloggingadeadhorse2]

Thanks heaps for creating this video! Awesome! How did it ride?

[@Logan-jr2so]

impressive

[@ausguitarist]

ive got the same big ass makita router. thats the one without a safety switch? it shreds through any material I love it. sick vid man xo

[@willmorton6348]

can you show us a video of you surfing it

[@MatthewJMcCarthy]

Nicely done. (Subscribed)

[@michaeljohn8905]

Great job ! I’m not trying to be critical but I’m think you could get that deck could be a lot better if you use more grits in between and don’t skip any. I know it’s hard but it looks like you either didn’t get the scratches from the last sanding. I’ve been at this for a long time but one thing I still use is guide coat. I mostly do boats but you and I are special when it comes to fiberglass. We laminate and don’t use molds. So we have to contend with so many factors. I came from a boat detail shop and I learned a lot about finishing before I started learning Fiberglass it really help me out a lot. When you can look in the reflection of a boat or a surfboard and you can see zero Orange peel and can read the penny date that’s what I strive for. As I said your projects looks awesome , I hope you don’t think that I am disrespecting your project because it looks absolutely awesome! Just adding some constructive criticism. Enjoy and did you say this was your first time doing this?????!! if so my hats off to you. Buy a Makita buffer they last so much longer and you hold it in a more advantageous way. Again awesome project have fun thanks for posting I liked and sub this.

[@eduardoaguilar5086]

nice board man! Im starting my first board project ASAP, any recommendations?

[@JordsWoodShop]

Hey Surf Junkies, Just a heads up our DIY KITS are comming soon and so are more build your own videos!

[@JanSevera]

[@BlaiseBrogan]

Dude I been watch your videos for a while, but this one is super sick! Great editing and a great project! Keep up the great work bud Blaiseyxox

[@chip2567]

i want to make one

[@Freddy-dg7dh]

Whats the weight of this beauty ?

[@markblue777]

Could see this being a good money earner for you in your part of the world. Especially if you stream line some of the other parts manufacturing. Good looking board at the end of it though fella. Mark

[@888TMONEY888]

If you get one ding though, that things gonna sink haha hows the responsiveness of the board? is it heavy or lighter because of its hollow core?

[@erinsmith7219]

Just had another thought, yea I know that rarely happens, but anyway, ever thought of making a "DIY" kit? Build your own surfboard kit, would be the best wood working "DIY" sort of kit, that I could ever imagine and I for one would buy such, if it were ever available. Oh it would definitely not be for "beginners" that is for sure, but for intermediate to advanced wood working folks, this would be something different, as you could make use of the vareity of local types of woods, to build with!

[@pohoiki922]

NAICE!!!

[@NMranchhand]

Hey Jord! Don't know how I missed this great vid. Did you ever surf this board? Get any video?

[@ross5307]

Do you have the pdf plans for CAD? I have a laser cutter and would buy plans off of you if you have them

[@IdRatherMakeItMyself-Net]

Looks awesome! Where's the footage of you using it? :)

[@knivesstuff]

Cool! I thought wooden surfboards were one solid piece of wood!

[@JordsWoodShop]

+knives&stuff there is a few style, there are the solid ones, very heavy, Then you have the chambered boards that are shapes from a solid piece, ripped into pieces and hollowed out to some degree and glued back together. and then you have the Hollow core ones like this.

[@vincenzodimaro3632]

Hallo. Thanks for this fantastic video. Actually, what about the weight of the whole table ?Isn't it too much for a surf board :S ?

[@jacobwright1777]

Hi there Great Video. I am currently planning to make a similar hollow core surf board, and was wondering where you got the skeleton from. Cheers.

[@freakeasy]

Did you use a rocker table ? Great project ! keep up the good work !

[@spacemansabs]

How did you keep your clamps from sliding off at the ends of the board? I noticed you cut away from that part.

[@andyshort919]

What is the tool that you're using at 3:24 to shave the wood off called?

[@ajpearce]

How did you design the struts / fishbone at 123d make stage?? Kinda missed this whole section... It's something I've been grappling with for ages now!

[@robsollom935]

Your videos are awesome. What kind of cnc do you use?

[@pilotmike797]

Kawa bunga dude lol. Nice work
