Just curious as to how to make your own fiber glass fins too… I’m thinking of putting glass-ons on my first board… Yet I want to make my own fins while I’m at it… Thanx for the help its much appreciated.
Hey C.J. Choose the templates for your set up. Draw them on a piece of glass. 22 layers of 6oz warp glass will make the fins the right thickness. Make the panel big enough to cut all the fins out of. Pop the resin panel of the glass and cut the fin templates out with a carborundum blade in a jig saw. Grind the foils into them starting with a very course grit (24) and finishing with a finer one(80). Fair the foils out by hand (80 & 240) and be real careful because once material is gone you can’t put it back very easily. Wear lots of protection or else you’ll itch like crazy. Don’t for get a good mask and eye protection as well. Scrubb with GoJo and a stiff brush and cold water (to keep your pours closed) when you done to get any stray glass fines out of your skin. Good Luck, Rich
