My first fabric inlay

A little golden nugget
Well it's been a busy long weekend! I've managed to shape Nugget a 6'4" board for myself then laminate the bottom of Nugget and a 8'6" board i am making. The 8'6" has some serious tail rocker and a flat nose with a concave. I have done a dark blue tint on the 8'6" and was going to do the whole board blue but had some fabric sitting around that i am using to make some fins and decided to do a fabric inlay on the nose, looks pretty sweet!!

Cutting the template out.

6'4" Nugget


Nugget in front leading the pack !
Well started work today on a new board for myself it's a 6'4" 21 1/2 by 2 5/8 thick.
I have decided to name the board nugget after a  mate that passed away a few years back. Much like nugget this board is short and wide up top in the chest area. 
Nugget was an Aussie i worked with at Whistler Glass,  we became great mates and in summer Nugget , Steve and I spent most afternoons after work in the bike park riding our downhill bikes till the park closed followed by beers in the village.
It came as a shock when Nugget passed away 3 years back in whistler after I had returned to Australia.. He died from a heart problem when he was going to bed he was in his early thirties and a year older then me at the time. He was loving life and had been in Whistler for a few years living the dream. Nugget was from Queensland and enjoyed a surf and i often caught him on the net in Whistler checking the surf cams.
In memory of Nugget !

Fiberglass fins




Well been busy trying to make some fiberglass fins of late. I've been laying up 40 layers of cloth to make some 10 inch glass on fins and some 8 inch fin box style fins. I mix up the resin 100ml at a time which helps lay up about 5 layers at a time. I have some cloth patterns to add to a few more fins that i'm going to build.
