Little cover up from today…
This wave was only about headhigh. Looking forward to getting some more shots, hopefully in some bigger Fall / Winter waves.
And a screenshot for you Chip
Cool shot Chris! I can see the windmill behind and the CliffHouse in front.
What are your rocker Dims… On that board? My blank has 4.75 Nr & 2.125 Tr with the outline cut & unshaped.
Thanks Ian…
I’m not sure of the numbers but, you can borrow the rocker templates if you like?
I’m really liking that rocker too… I’m thinking of making a 5 finner with that rocker and outline.
Ding repair and a leash loop (my first) for my brother.
That’s a cool board, Crisp. Single fin fish. I bet Ben- Chipfish is gonna dig it. Mike
thanks Ray…
I just got done prepping the 2 cork/bamboo boards for glass. I also cut out the 4 bamboo bonzer runners and a 5 fin G10 set.
Marking fins tonight and hope to drop 10 FCS fusion boxes within the next 48ish hours.
After that, they are ready to glass =)
Great stuff Chris......Keep up the Build thread Energy!!!!!
Right on RA! …
pulled the tape on the minigun… Even the cheap blue tape pulled up bamboo strands. I think they are still glassable but I’m going to have to make some adjustments if I do another like this.
nice thread good pics looks like fun good on yu
Minigun in the bag:
fin panel under glass:
G10 ready to cut out:
Oh, and there are a couple spots I’m gonna have to fix with the 5 minute epoxy.
Just pulled the Bonzer out of the bag…
some good news and some bad news…
Good news, the cork edge pulled up nice and easy…
The bad news, the tape pulled up some of the Bamboo with it… D’oh!!!
On the next one I am NOT going to use 233.
Cork deck on the Bonzer in the bag…
Note to self. I need relief cuts with the cork…
Laying up a bamboo fin panel on the dining room table…
Best wife ever or covert operation???
That’s the goal… hustle hustle hustle =)
will she be ready for Plaskett???
About like this…
need to tweak them a little more and smooth them out too.
building a fin panel…
I figure 8 layers will get me close to 3/16… Along with a couple layers of 4oz on each side, should net me close to 1/4" thick for the runners.
