I bet that was so satisfying the first time you stood on a deck that you manufactured from scratch! Well done project- Looks identical to store bought.

[@Icdezines]

being a guitar builder and a skater...definitely making a deck. this video helped me decide on how to make my molds.

[@befer]

yooo, 3 years later, how did it end up? did u ever pick up the project ?

[@Icdezines]

@@beferi made a few. Trying to sell them never worked out. So i just skated them for my self. Wasnt really worth my time anymore.

[@befer]

@@Icdezines were they comparable to the store bought ones at all?

[@Icdezines]

@@befer it actually felt lighter and More snappy. Graphics wise, i dont have a silk screen. I used waterslide but waterslides come in sheets. So i couldn’t get the graphics as one full sheet. Plus considering the amount of work i had to put into it id have charge more then store bought. The catch is similar to my guitar making. When a robot is making it the value goes down. But when its hand made the value should go up. But then finding a buyer becomes more difficult when they compare it to mass produced versions..at least for me, lol im not the best salesman haha. So far its still holding up, but i haven’t skated in like 3 years now also haha

[@rotaryjunkie9502]

@@Icdezines quick question man. did you use plywood for the decks, or glued multiple pieces of veneer?

[@trickswithjp]

wow this is crazy I did this exact same thing as a high-school wood shop project when I was maybe 15 ( im 27 now). I remember I accidently cut a deck at 7.25 wide and gave it to my brother who learned 360 pressure flips on that same board because it was so narrow. He later landed too hard and snapped it. I was so sad afterwards lol

[@DameNaNoYo]

best tutorial ever, thanks for the pdf great job!!

[@aliam6626]

Way better than other videos I’ve seen

[@markmccall9027]

Just a thought... But if you used thinner planks (eg 20mm) when creating the concave etc, you might be able to fill in the steps/edges with a really strong filler, rather than relly on cutting away so much through sanding. It's just that the more you have to sand away, the more likely that your top and bottom mould will not really match perfectly. Which means a much weaker bond and way less deck strength.

[@mikeg1433]

I understand what you’re saying about how sanding the two halves of the mold individually technically creates dissimilar pieces which means theres some variation in in the press resulting in a weaker (albeit very slightly I’m sure) board. I also understand how using more, thinner planks increases the resolution of the copies, so to speak but I don’t know how filler would make it more precise than just sanding from that point? Also, how did you decide an exact number like 20mm for the recommended plank thickness? Is this a standard that’s in use in the industry? I’m assuming you’re referring to something like a resin or epoxy as the filler but I’m trying to imagine applying it and I’m not experienced at all with any of it but I’d imagine, if it’s the right consistency, you can pour it on and/or use something like a large plastic putty knife and special brush but would it really be more consistent? I guess the force on gravity is pretty consistent lol but won’t it also cause more to pool up in the concaves? Maybe if you exaggerate the concaves on the template that would make up for it🤔

[@robthompson1399]

I like this idea, a bit ! What I like is the idea of using narrower material for the forms. I think that a cheap and readily available material such as MDF could be used. It comes in many thicknesses. What I don't like, is the original idea of sanding, or the idea of filling. I think that if a narrow material was used, the contours would be close enough to be left alone altogether. Let's assume 10mm MDF, I could work with that using a jigsaw, as I don't have access to a bandsaw. But having never tried this, it's all speculation. I will have to have a go. I want to make a topmount dropdeck longboard of a slightly more compact length than my other boards.

[@poultonprojects]

cant wait to try and make my own! great video

[@imquiet6562]

loving the element shirt. Good skating group. My brother was in iraq in the marines when he sent me my first hellium element board set up with there red wax and trucks the wheels where nice too.He even bought me a abunch of doh dohs and the first element movei. I ll never for get that.. I still even have the originals barrings he gave me. red bones barings. The company went out of business but eventully wound up making them again. Love thie vid. helped me alot. I want to learn to make my own board. gun give this a go. Thanks again sir have a awsome day

How do i trace the length and width?? And how did you draw the shape??

[@dyljoskill7292]

There are 2 ways 1: Get a skateboard (Without the trucks) and trace it, make sure it’s still. 2: trace one half of a skateboard, cut it out, and then turn it around the other side and trace it.

[@carlosreira2189]

Wondering if you’ve had any subsequent problems with the polyurethane glue? This could be one application where it shines. It’s very waterproof. But I’m concerned that it’s too thin and can’t bridge even tiny gaps except by foaming. Maybe no problem as even the foam is very sticky.

This is definitely an amateur way to make a board.. but the proper way would be to layer 7 maple veneers to ensure structural integrity, and do press that in between your mold. Any money that board you made will break after a month of riding
