[@garretdouglas4056]

Love the use of the sander. I bet you could make one using only that tool.

[@tommasobelle9733]

Thank you! I follow your lessons as a degree course.

Excellent job Mr Kazuma-ski.

[@kazumasurfboards]

Jon LaLanne. Thank you

[@genelevesque2555]

Please tell me about your disk battery operated sander and the pad & paper you are using? This is the best video I have ever seen, you are amazing!

[@sheridanlitangan1235]

i miss shaping surfboards.. greeting from siargao island philippines...

[@mercerbarrows3542]

That was amazing.

[@kazumasurfboards]

Mercer Barrows. thank you. Many years of perfecting my steps has led me o this place of high effu

[@tillyjow8484]

I'm sure that's how the great artist of the Renaissance did their work, too.

[@Bido11561]

What kinda pad are you using on the Milwaukee when cutting in concaves and smoothing planer lines? Thanks

[@kazumasurfboards]

It's a softie pad from flexpad

[@Bido11561]

Thanks!

[@Bido11561]

One more, what grit paper do you have on the pad? Thanks

[@Bido11561]

Sorry and is it a 6” or 8” pad?

[@kazumasurfboards]

@@Bido11561 8"

[@EdWong2012]

Is it always a race or is this your normal working pace or rhythm?

[@kazumasurfboards]

This is definitely not my normal pace. I did this strictly for showing the steps, technique and process that i use without any fluff or filler. Makes for a video that will actually be watched. There was no measuring which would add 15 minutes, no looking and checking which would add 15 minutes and no fine finishing which could easily add 20 to 30 minutes.

[@Frank-pj3ic]

Great video Mr Kazuma. Where I can buy The Foam what suppor surfboard on The racks? What type of material is this? And finally , What grade of final sanding? Thanks, its great video

[@kazumasurfboards]

That is memory foam like what bed mattress are made of. I get it on Amazon. I usually finish to 180 grit.

[@wouteroosting4687]

Is that grit 40 on the soft pad after the Hitachi?

[@kazumasurfboards]

It is 60 grit

[@LAWUFO]

Hey Matt, still waiting on my delivery from Shaper Supply! It's been a month bra! Do you believe it! LOL Btw, what size Milwaukee Fuel circular 6" or 7 1/2"? Do you like the way it cuts and do you use it often?.....Rich

[@yerawizardharry2632]

Do you glass your boards? And if so what kind of catalyst do you use

[@kazumasurfboards]

YerAWizardHarry. Yes, I use MEKP (Methyl Ethyl Ketone Peroxide) it can be found everywhere

[@yerawizardharry2632]

kazumasurfboards thanks!

[@patravpatrav568]

Yeah bra i always drop two ritalin in my coffe before i shape...bzzz

[@Surfmus]

Good muscle memory.

[@hasadharabab950]

Bravo

[@galmeytes7174]

Gets you thinking how so little time can be put into the work, yet after paying the big 700$. consumers will keep the board and repair it till the point it rots, as if it is unexchangeable. I still keep and repair the same rusty 5,3 I got 3 years ago, and cost me 250$ second hand.

[@avocadosforlunch]

Wow, whole surfboard 20min uncut. animal, literally spent 2 minuets on the rails.
