Larry , You sure dress funny !!! Grampa Larry!!! 1975 !!!Chit man looks like a Rockwell 14 inch bandsaw ?

 

As you can see… You’re truly missed here Larry…")

If bandsaws could talk… How many fins, and how many nearly lost fingers…?

 

Over 1 Million Fins and no nearly lost fingers, but had a accident one time while RTMing in the late 80’s resin shot into my face and eyes. I told my employees this is what you are NOT suppose to do when the Ambulance arrive to take me away. Ever since then SAFETY is number one in my world! Mahalo, Larry

…hey Larry, still waiting for the pins for the fins after 3 years…just saying

I know that are cents, but if you want support you should offer support

WOW!!! I must be having to much fun time flew. Check your PM my friend, I will make it happen at no charge for the pins you just cover shipping. Yikes sorry for delay. Mahalo,Larry

hey larry, what kind of blades are you using on the bandsaw? I mostly do wood core fins, but make glass on tabs and cut them out with carbide grit jig saw blades on my scroll saw or jig saw. I’ve got an extra bandsaw that could be dedicated to fins, so I’d be curious to know what works well for you.

thanks! mike

YO PRO,

 

Lots of fine foiling work on these irregular trailing edges.

Cosmetics are da-bomb as well.

 

What sort of boards are these going to run on?

 

Aloha, Rich

 

P.S. 1,000,000 + hmmm… I only have 999,000 to go (-;

Herb,

As a progressive thinker, and surfer, would you like to be involved in testing the fin on some of your boards?    PM or phone me.

Just curious.     I’ve checked, and it is able to be patent protected.     Can be made to fit any box setup.   Anyone interested in going into the fin business?   The fin will allow you to go faster, and turn sharper  without loss of drive, than other fins now available.     Like I said, just curious.         

 

Bill, Sorry to take your thread in all different directions, your title of this thread was perfect. Thanks for sharing your years of knownledge my friend. Mahalo,Larry

[quote="$1"] Hey Bill,

Met you outside Bird's shed the day Glen Horn had big red in the parking lot. [/quote]

I remember.   You were a long way from your home break, eh?   It was nice of you to introduce yourself.

[thrailkill]

I'm surprised that there is so little interest in something that will make such a profound change in surfing.  

[Huck]

Coming from you, I have to assume this is the Real Deal.  Wish I was in a position to take you up on the offer!

Simon Anderson would have felt the same way in 1981. [Early legrope and wetsuit manufacturers too , no doubt...]

[ I'm ALWAYS interested in fin stuff. I have even occassionally taken a photo or two of some of mine ....]

Wouter,

It's difficult not to be offended by your comments, deeply rooted in ignorance as they are.     You know nothing about my background.      At this point, to ''share'' would be to give away the design.     Your comment ''And we all know you're not a businessman.'' , is a clear statement of how uninformed you are.    Being silent, and thought to be a fool, rather than making comment and removing all doubt, would have served you better.     FYI, I did glass on 2+1 tri fins in 1964, removable tri fins in 1970, and recessed leash cups in 1971, all well before the popular acceptance in the marketplace.   Now you know a little more about me.   But wait, there's more.....
