Help out a Bro..... Who needs to know....

General Discussion
1

I would like to start a thread that will save a Bro ( you know who you are ) countless hours of anguish deciding on a topic to post up next.

It could contain a 'best of’ list for example, 

1.Best Blank

2.Best Cloth

3.Best Resin

4.Best Tools

5.Best Shaper

6.Best Laminator

7.Best Fin & Filler 

8.Best Sander ( Deanbro’s current fav )

9.Best Fin System and Installer

  1. Best Pinliner

11.Best Glosser

12.Best Polisher

13.Best Shop Assistant

14.Best ShopRat / Grommet

The** list of lists** could be endless and contain sub-lists so we could really drill down into the best of the best  and include millions of the best tips.

This could become a resource of immeasurable value inside a resource of immeasurable value.

So come on who are the besties ?

I’ll start with No.11…   BEST polisher ever…Suzy from San Souci !!  Hope that helps.

Cheers

Mooneemick

I reckon you nailed it there

You don’t have to rip the bag in the surf, great if you can but not essential

You don’t have to know every method of board construction , great if you do but not essential

You don’t have to have a pro factory setup , again great if you do but not essential

BUT… you have to eventually get out from behind the computer and have a go at least.

Real life …no BS…

Cheers

Don’t forget, best shop to buy this stuff from, best route to take you there, best gas station, best type of petrol (91 octane of course), best time of day to avoid traffic, best radio station to listen to on the way, best sunglasses to use while driving, best tyres to put on your car, best pressure to keep your tyres at, best brand of tyres, best tyre balancer.

Face it Moneemick, there are board builders out there who have been doing it for decades and their advice beats your misinformation every time. Provided they wish to post of course.

No misinformation there Bro 

It’s a thankless world we live in, try and help a Bro out and you get slammed…terrible…terrible… makes me fear for the kiddies’ future.

I love RR epoxy, and I’m very stoked on my experience with 4-way fin boxes…

Best blanks… The ones I make of course… Ha!

Hey Dean...post up some photos !!!!! Ha Ha Ha ha ha ...won't happen.....Ha ha ha....

Here we go.....on a trip to no where........We've been down this road....It's a dead end.

I'm not a good surfer.....Life got in the way...I went surfing today...on a surfboard I Hot wired, glued in the stringer, shaped and glassed...Air brush too....and did I mention the tail block...and the fin install....So I suck at surfing today because I'm out of shape.... I try very hard not to give bad advise and all my comments are real. Based on real life, not quoting other people.

 I'm good at glassing. Really good with RR epoxy.....Really good....No BS...

Moonie called you out......fun stuff...

...Stingray.........................

…" you have to eventually get out from behind the computer and have a go at least.

few months ago when I said something like that to a couple of member s here

some taken those words as harsh ones…

Hey reverb

Maybe a little harsh but the sentiment is true. I’m just a hack so no-one really gets devo’d by what I have to say.

You on the other hand , I think sometimes your posts are misunderstood , the quality of your boards and your no BS approach to building them can intimidate some people I guess.

I get a lot out what you have to say. Here is someone you would like   One Man Band …The local craftsman

…hello Mooneemick,

I entered; the boards with the more rigid rail approach look very interesting.

 

-Hope that me with the “BS approach”, as you say, don t end alone lost in a nowhere land

I think its a good Idea...

All the info you could possibly need is HERE....

So if there was a way to have a list of say: most viewed threads (today/this week/ this month etc) or say threads that contain most replies.

We can give props to one another, it would be cool to give props to threads as well. Say, us "users" (que TRON soundtrack) could rate threads on how good/helpfull they are...or even the if its filled with opinions on what is the best way to cook up a mean seal pie..

 

PS I know there is a search function and yaddayaddayadaa...I'm just spewing ideas, cos its nealy time to go home.
