Enrique…who was running the Brazo camp on Asu told me the new Bawa breaks ‘just like chopes’…but it’s a right man?
here is a famous quote some will recognise some wont
none the less a quote that a lot failed to keep?
Every day I
go out into the shaping room, turn on the sidelights, put a blank on
the racks, and draw out a planshape. I listen to and talk with surfers
about design and construction every single day. I hear about every soft
spot, every buckled board, and every sticky turn. At the end of each
evening, I blow the dust off, turn off the lights, and leave behind in
the darkened shaping bay another new surfboard.
1. Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and
beat you with experience.
2. Going to church doesn't make you a Christian any more than standing
in a garage makes you a car.
3. The last thing I want to do is hurt you. But it's still on the list.
4. If I agreed with you we'd both be wrong.
5. We never really grow up, we only learn how to act in public.
6. War does not determine who is right - only who is left.
7. Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit; Wisdom is not putting it in
a fruit salad.
8. Evening news is where they begin with 'Good evening', and then
proceed to tell you why it isn't.
9. A bus station is where a bus stops. A train station is where a train
stops. On my desk, I have a work station.
10. How is it one careless match can start a forest fire, but it takes a
whole box to start a campfire?
11. Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can
train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.
12. I thought I wanted a career, turns out I just wanted pay checks.
13. Whenever I fill out an application, in the part that says "In an
emergency, notify:" I put "Doctor".
14. I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
15. Behind every successful man is his woman. Behind the fall of a
successful man is usually another woman.
16. You do not need a parachute to skydive. You only need a parachute to
skydive twice.
17. The voices in my head may not be real, but they have some good
ideas!
18. Hospitality: Making your guests feel like they're at home, even if
you wish they were.
19. I discovered I scream the same way whether I'm about to be devoured
by a great white shark or if a piece of seaweed touches my foot.
20. There's a fine line between cuddling and holding someone down so
they can't get away.
21. I always take life with a grain of salt, plus a slice of lemon, and
a shot of tequila.
22. When tempted to fight fire with fire, remember that the Fire
Department usually uses water.
23. You're never too old to learn something stupid.
24. To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you
hit the target.

No win or lose. Better still, everybody wins.
I like to understand what I am making before I build it, especially
when electricity is involved. I will not be cutting foam until the
weather warms up – got nowhere to glass inside. I would not have
considered any of this if Ken at Segway had not suggested using EPS and a
hotwire, and somebody here had not posted about using a battery charger
anyway.
Seemed like there was too much guesswork going on out here in
cyberspace. So I decided to see what I could learn. I view more
information as a good thing. The equations are basic and the algebra is
simple. Fixed output power sources can work just fine with the right
gauge and length of Nichrome wire and sufficient volts/amps.
Seems like anybody can win.
It is best to keep things in context surfding.
