Here are some shots of the most current.






I think I am getting pretty close in completing the board. This weekend I will be doing some final sanding and then to the gloss. If all goes well, I'll be surfing this board soon. Can't wait!

My Desk in the Garage

Adding the Last Pigment Color


Get the Fin Box In.




I made this template using some left over pegboard and raising it up a tad using some left over balsa. The cut went well. No problems cutting the hole. I used a 1/4 inch router bit with the DeWalt router. Had to make the template pretty low because the bit I used wasn't long enough to cut out a 1 1/8 inch hole.

I needed to do shallow cuts. Probably a 1/4 of an inch at a time. It was weird, any deeper than that, the sound it made was intolerable although it cut just fine.
