Thought someone might get a laugh from this lammed the deck of a board today clear bottom resin swirl on the deck poured the red and yellow on then realised I had forgotten to tape for the cut lap…
Result looks like crap.
I’ll post a pic once its kicked.
Bugger.
If it makes you feel any better, I found out what happens when you put 5x too much MEKP in 500mL of resin the other night when I was installing some finboxes (heat, rapidly setting resin and, eventually, smoke). I had to scramble to dig it all out of the cavities while it was still gelling, then dump the whole fuming lot into a wheelbarrow full of water to control the heat until the chemical reaction had died down.
I blame my failing eyesight, or perhaps just my ageing brain. I read 5%, when it actually read 5mL!
You live, you learn.
haha tommorth everyones doing it these days, sell it to some grom and hell be frothing
Luckily waves don’t care what surfboards look like!

very lucky if they did I think they would hate my boards.
i almost did that the other day glassing a long board with some volan cloth, luckly i realized this before i layed down some resin but the cloth was all ready cut out, so i had to put the tape on the bottom side of the board, it mad it just alittle bit of a pain in the butt
I kinda like it.
…ambrose…
every board is diffrent
like babies,bome are breach birthed…
always time for more screwupingtons,
and then once you goofed,every thing else
can run way smoothe ending in a perfect gloss.
Believe in the fortunate mistake to lead the way.
