Love it! Someone crazier or stupider than me? I'm watching this chuckling to myself thinking how many people would put this much work into a board like that. Then I came to the comment at 7:26 and you say it all, "Wow, that was a lot of work!" (have a beer...or 12...) Great job mate! But here's the thing, you gave me some wonderful ideas for other projects. I have numerous pieces of scrape wood and perhaps combining it with foam filler, some laminated sheets, there might be some fun and unique future projects here! Thank you!!!

Great video. I part exchanged a noserider longboard today. Made a big mistake, as I didn't realize how many digs it had. It's too good to take off the fibreglass. If I repair the pressure dings etc, and sand down the hot coat, could I glue Paulownia to the sanded polyester resin? The board is 23 wide and I'd like a 25.5" wide board. The board is already heavy. But it'd be fun to have a wooden board. What do you think?
@DeepCreekTV3 жыл бұрын
I don't see why not....if you're not too concerned about weight, maybe you could go a little thinner with the Paulownia as well, maybe 1/8", I generally use 1/4". The only concern would be the rails, you probably still need to cut them off but that would give you the width you're after. Maybe just use some Q cell to fill the dings & depressions, easy to sand and get in shape. Have fun ✌🏼🙂

G'day John. You inspired me to start a similar project. I'm wondering about setting fin boxes back into the expanded foam though, was that strong enough to set them back in or would you do something different? I'm considering setting blocks of timber into the foam for the fin boxes to go into.
@DeepCreekTV9 жыл бұрын
Seamus Miller Cheers Seamus, so far holding up but putting blocks there would be a good idea & certainly be stronger. I feel that the 4 to 5mm timber that the boxes were set in on this board ( I agree the expandable foam has no strength ) is much stronger than in a fiberglass board. I'm now wanting to do a new shaped blank. good luck with it.

I agree, " most ideas are copies or learn't techniques anyway with a tweak here or there." in this case though (wrapping a surfboard in timber) for me it wasn't, & possibly somebody somewhere at that time was doing the same thing, who knows?. Hence "an act of total randomness", unfortunately for us all Big Surf Co/business are very proactive today in protecting what they perceive as their own ideas or techniques. Thanks for that.

Thanks for the video. Did you use your own thicknesser to prepare all the strip planks? Also the coving edges, assume you used a router to get them in? Could see a proud look from you when your board wash finished, awesome.
@DeepCreekTV3 жыл бұрын
Hi, I got a joiner to dress the strips as I don't have the gear and Yes the bead and cove was done with a router table but I feel it's not needed on the bottom of board, just square edges would suffice. Clamping the bead and cove can bring other problems too if it's not cleanly machined eg. trying to get a gap free joint to make it water tight if you're not glassing. It all has pros and cons. It does look nice oiled, has a real deep grain look. Thanks for the feedback. ✌🏼🙂

thought to cover it with epoxy resin afterwards, do you thing I have to use fiber as well or does work out without? Would like to avoid to add further weight, cause i used african whitewood, the only lightwood I could find here, the market on sardinia is quiet limited :D
@DeepCreekTV3 жыл бұрын
@@aleksardah9532 Hi mate, I used 4 rail bands, 5 in total. The number you use depends on what shape rail you want in relation to the thickness of your board, less bands gives you a rounder fuller rail , more bands if you'd like a lower thinner rail. If you get good tight joints there's probably no need to use cloth when glassing, just paint, but if you have a few gaps and can suck air between the joints then may need to glass with cloth fiber. You may be able to source 3/4oz cloth fiber (used for model airplanes) which will help keep the weight low. Thanks for the feedback ✌🏼🙂

such a rad project. considering a similar 'wrap' with cloth reinforcement to act as a shield for the bottom of a whitewater river SUP. these get a lot of damage from rocks, so my question: do you think 5mm is enough to protect the board? how much stronger is this board than just a traditionally glassed board?
@DeepCreekTV5 жыл бұрын
Hi David, I don't think Paulownia timber would surfice, it's reasonably strong impact strength but you can push your finger nail into it when not glassed and even glassed wouldn't stand up to what your discribing. I'd be only guessing what you need but I'd be looking at other craft that white water and what material their made from... maybe you could use that as the wrap in place of Paulownia/tlmber.

@DeepCreekTV4 жыл бұрын
You should find the timber will have good impact strength, I've never had a pressure ding but it does scratch although without glass the scratch generally self repairs over time. I mix bees wax with natural turpentine oil to make a polish, you can experiment with it. Before this I give it 4 coats of thinned raw tung oil, this is a very slow process, 4weeks to dry before bees wax polish.
