    I ****ed up no 4, sanding back finish coat (think I will stick to furniture oil)

    I can repair it but, I just went on to no 5

    So far I have 2 good boards out of 5 attempts.

    I have ordered some foam blanks to make some full size surfboards.

    thanks crowie, keith and beardy for your interest in these wood models.

    when I get the boards shaped I will upload some pics.

    they have a wood stringer so they may qualify.

    cheers skeg

    Hi Skeghead,

    Looking forward to your next post.

    I wont send a photo of me now

    I had trouble with my fibreglassing when I made my board. Looking forward to seeing you doing it. Are you going to add decals and different colours ?

    Be Safe

    Regards

    Keith
