what is the glassing schedule on one of your carbon fiber boards?

[@christinepaniamogan6674]

How many onz of fiberglass cloth on the top sir for final???

[@ryancook629]

I’m thinking about building one but I don’t know what foam to get

[@rojka_3497]

what cind of fiber glass are you useing ?

[@rtikulouno1998]

can i ask a PDF of the actual size and shape of your board. PLEASE

[@fabianfisher6740]

Pro trick: you can watch movies on flixzone. Been using them for watching loads of movies lately.

[@baileyart3649]

During the end sanding process, doesn’t the board weaken where you are sanding the fibreglass for the traction pads?

[@OXSEnterprises]

From an on paper stand point, as soon as you sand fibreglass (or carbon) you weaken it. It's irrelevant really as the boards aren't constructed around the tipping point of them breaking and/or being too weak. On a side note this construction method is out of date as I've made a heck of a lot of improvements.

[@Jonas-ib1eh]

where can u buy this foam?

[@joshuatice5585]

What kind of paint are you using on the board? Is it a normal satin paint? is it a resin? Trying to redo the top of my board and would like some advice

[@OXSEnterprises]

Just a spray can satin, I don't use it anymore. Get a much better finish with a polish.

[@harryminnie6]

Also making one using epoxy resin, and polystyrene

[@OXSEnterprises]

Nice. The polystyrene will dent pretty easily.

[@rojka_3497]

what is the weight of m2?

[@nikolastheo5459]

Wat is the form that gives the shape of the rocker made of that the fiberglass dose not stick on and comes off afterwards?

[@OXSEnterprises]

Use a release agent on the mould surface.

[@alex_fuji]

I bought a construction foam, will it fit? These are such sheets for insulation of the house.

[@OXSEnterprises]

Will it fit?

[@alex_fuji]

@@OXSEnterprises Oh, sorry, I don't speak English very well. I meant whether it is possible to create a skimboard from such a thing?

[@OXSEnterprises]

Of course it's possible. How good it ends up being is up to you.

[@PhilToran]

Best place to buy high density foam? Thx

[@OXSEnterprises]

Probably the place closest to you that has it.

[@stevew2842]

Allnex Composites

[@EgutierrezOD]

How do you form the rocker?

[@OXSEnterprises]

I don't want to give my exact process away but I will have to do a video on it explaining what happens.

[@plyingod]

make a wooden stringer 3/4. draw a template. cut foam in half. gorilla glue one half of foam to stringer.. use as much tape as needed to form foam to conture of stringer creating front rocker....rinse repeat other half.

[@ericafflerback2554]

What’s the cost usd for one like that? Thanks

[@OXSEnterprises]

Current pricing as of this message. Carbon $589nz = $421usd. Plus shipping.

[@clarkbridges2260]

How much do you sell them for?

[@OXSEnterprises]

This one with tail pad is $508nz. E-glass is cheaper and prices change a little with traction set up.

what does the mold look like. that’s the only thing i’m tripped up on

[@OXSEnterprises]

Like a bent table.

OXS Enterprises can i send you a DM on instagram to learn more?

[@OXSEnterprises]

No. Parts of the process I don't share.

Your just posting videos people dont understand.. we cant get any good ideas of this... You just want to have fame to people who knows less of these process!!!

hey!! found this trying to make a skimboard. will tell you how it goes

Cool. Good luck.

how did it go??

[@sicdrift97]

this board need one more layar epoxy rise (hot coat) i think=)

Can I have it ?😊

[@pimpsk8er3702]

how do you make the rocker

[@OXSEnterprises]

I cover the topic here kzbin.info/www/bejne/emfRn2BqhdWdd9k

[@pimpsk8er3702]

@@OXSEnterprises what about if you dont have a vacuum or mold

[@OXSEnterprises]

You will need to find a way to bend something to form something and hold it there. Clamps work but you'll need a way to curve the material you're using.

[@pimpsk8er3702]

how much are your boards

[@chriscorrente7174]

You didn't show us anything? Except a magic trick… Leaving everything out? I'm grateful not to be banking on riding the board you taught us how to (not) make because we would be bummed riding nothing... Teach people your skill.. Don't hoard it?! This is so old energy... Nothing for the New Earth. PS- I taught Barton Lynch how to make a Street Boardz in 2003 with... I designed the Stik for Carveboard Sports... So Thanks for the Abracadabra...

[@vincentkenney3526]

You flaked on the whole process apart from finishing touches 👎🏽👎🏽
