What a life ! I find the load Paulowina on island for super cheap take it to Ambrose he schools me on cutting, ripping ,gluing ,clamping grinding,planing-hand and makita, setting up stringers with cedar and Kauai balsa. We make enough blanks for a new fleet of Alaias and then some all for some kieki o ka aina . The best part for me is I get to hang out with my friend. Big Mahalos from Anahola .ps I also got to use a 13 inch draw knife shoots then .

the finger jointed lam 2x10 pre painted grade
a great find and a patchwork wonder.

cut three piecies 20’ into piecies 6’8’’
three each selected for damage from results
lamed two at a time into double wide with stringers
in 5 of the six [yes there were additional
pieces of wood as the math doesnt work out ]
two left pieces to make a body board

with a little more glue
