Lets Make a Deal 2013

whenever Ray shows up…not sure when that will be he just said “afternoon”…  maybe we can have airing of grievances and feats of strength until then!!

Oh no.....Not the Kibituzing chair?

“…we can have airing of grievances and feats of strength until then!!”

Hahahaha!!!  And here I thought you guys were getting low class with a stripper pole…  Ha!

Taylor O,

I have two red x thruster side fins.  X-8’s.  No  rear fin.  Do you need them?  Mike

Man, I love the barter system. I know the government does’nt thou. I’m looking for some EPS for a project. I need some billet style foam to glue up to a blank to widen it. It’s a paddleboard blank so, it needs to be thick. Approx 8". Maybe a strigerless paddleboard blank or ? I need to cut it into strips. Board is 12’+ long. Its a knee-paddler. Im going to make it a stand-up flat water cruiser. So I need another 8" width.  But strips dont have to be. Anybody got something? Maybe a trade? Airbrushes or Pinline work. I also make fins or do foam or wood inserts. Let me know.

Does anyone have a fish net they want to sell or trade? I don't know much about fishing. I do know a legal sized halibit was lost because our boat crew is still working on getting all the right equipment....or maybe someone could tell me what to look for....can I just buy a net at Walmart?

Always fun trading stuff...looking forward to more deals in the future!!!!!!

Ray

Thanks Keith and Ray(and Jay??)…Stoked to pass on the glass to someone who can use it…Also stoked on the parabolic-stringer blank from Ray and hopefully some polish from Jay…Sorry I missed you Jay, had kid-duty. If you left enough polish for me, I’ll owe you…When this board is done, I should have SOMETHING you can use…resin, glass, etc…

um yeah Mr. ResinHead left a gallon of hi quality 3M polish, I think that’s plenty for whatever you need!  He got a 7’11" EPS blank, we also swapped RR epoxy, tape, glass, you name it we traded it… 

If you're lucky, you'll bring one to the surface that is so big it won't fit in a net.  Get yourself a gaff.

 

While I currently only have one gaff… The other two floated away while being lodged in seal skulls. I will either bring one, or make / steal one form a variety or sources. I think my friend Angry John has a few around his vessel.

Scott, plenty of shiny stuff at Keiths. We are squared up no problem. I have more if needed.

I got a nice gaff and will deliver it…so all set for fishing if the surf goes flat!!

I’ve got lots of short rolls of 38" 6 oz.   27" 6 oz.  and 38" 6 oz. Volan.  All in Hexcel.  Ten and thirty yard rolls.  I’ll be down that way around 2/1/13.  Had this stuff listed in the Surf Shop here on Sways a couple of times, but no takers.  In those lengths it was like 30% off  But I guess “free” is the only thing that works around here.

Did you say free…I’ll take that.

Just overnight it to my address below.

I mean there seems to be a disconnect here. 30 percent off is great, but our coop is all about at cost. We source material at cost or below, and pass the savings on to team members. This is how we can under cut the surf industry…make surfboards for 50 bucks, and stick it to the man!

Are you the man?

We are the biggest threat to the surf industry…the back yarders!

Oh wait…no were not, that was left to the surf industry when it sold out to China back in the 90’s…12 years ago.

Hah!  You don’t make boards for fifty bucks and you never will.  The only guy on this website that can undercut the “Surf Industry” is Reverb.  He does 'em for free mius 20%.

Oh-----------  He also throws in some nice pin lines.

That was funny…thanks

I picked up the corecork Sunday. It's safe and dry at the Lab.

McDing, How far south are you going? I'm interested in 38" wide 6oz cloth. Please pm me a price for the 30 yard roll. Did you ever build any surfboards with the Warvel Foam? I did a longboard and a 7'5" egg...nice foam but very heavy finished product....Ray
