I was going to post on another thread but needed to do this
so it was out there first.
Go to the Industry section and read the posts by American Surf Industries
a la SurfDing. He has a lot of materials and pre-shapes for sale that are first quality.
#1: Help out a fellow shaper that is creatively moving on in spite of the economy.
#2: Stop posting about how you did so and so and get a pre shape and really do
so and so!
#3: Learn how to glass, hotcoat, airbrush, streak, swirl, etc. on a board that costs
less than a plain blank from any foam company and post your results, good, bad or indiffernet
here and tell us what you did, helping out the new kids.
#4: Stop posting about recycling and actually do something about it by making a board
out of dow eps (blue foam) that surfs like pu and lasts twice as long from a super cheap block.
#5: Take a pre-shape, cut out the stringer, add a middle glue line, cut in perimiter stringers,
glass with epoxy and make a board that will be the envy of the next Sacred Craft!
Anyway, check out Surfdings stuff and buy something and support a bro!!
