fin template foam inlay alaia

work patio

I needed a place to make sparks n dust so I put in this small patio w pavers. I built a small welding table too but its only 1/4 Inch plate w angle iron so it wasn't flat to begin with. It'll do though until I can find a good cold

rolled plate

pine board

So my little brother and I started shaping this board last year I think. It got put on the back burner until recently n I shortened it up and finished shaping and glassed it w 1 oz glass. 1 oz sucks to glass with by the way. Super tight weave doesn't like to drape that much n it puckered n creased a ton. But long story short this board is super fun and iv gotten a ton of waves on it so far and the flex feels really good. Doesn't do floaters as well as the mini though. Or go backside as nice. But front side it holds great!

covered storage rack

started putting a covered awning/ shelf/ rack/ storage deal behind the shed this week. Im not this organized on my own. the little lady helped. all the bigger material iv been hoarding can go here.

still needs a lot more work but at least the basic skeleton is up and out of the garage. update, its done

glassed asymmetrical alaia

this one is only 4 foot 10 ish and the widest point is a little under 17 n a half. 6 oz glass job with cloth only in the front half of the board and back rails. the deck of the board is just hot coated except for the rails in the front half. hoping to keep it flexy by not putting cloth where i didnt think it needed it. the whole bottom of the board has a concave so i think i should be able to stand up and ride this thing.
(Update.. I can)

paddleboard steering

my little brother let me take his board up to tahoe but the steering system was all messed up. i re did it using a carbon golf shaft and some skateboard deck wood. lathed out little stainless and aluminum bits too. now it just needs some sanding and cleanup and final hardware.

short asym redwood board.

making another board with some more Mez scrap. got the knots and cracks sealed with red epoxy and got the outline cut out and a little "shaping". think  i want to spend more time with this one before i glass it than the other board.

redwood

"Shaped" this board from some mezworks scrap and glassed it with flexy snowboard epoxy. gunna give it a try this weekend and then deal with sanding and fixing airbubbles. weighs 12 lbs!

glueing ptex to snowskate topdeck

got some waste Ralston base and glued it to the bottom of my board. pressed it on with another deck blank and some foam strips. didnt have enough clamps. had to use screenprinting ones. worked ok. needs a lot of clean up. a full sheet and pressure on the middle of the deck would hav worked better for sure.

rifle camera
