DIY custom shift knob from waste surfboard resin. UPCYCLE

In this video i'll show you a very straight forward way to turn your old resin scraps into something to fund your next board build.
I always have a small amount of resin left over from surfboard glassing so rather than just tip it in the trash I recycle it into car shift knobs, fin keys and other misc items to sell.

Seen a few people make these now, pretty awesome idea. I have a couple other scrap resin projects on the go then Im going to build one of these.

[@Shrednaught]

Heaps better than just trashing it. Fin keys are another sick idea

[@WaveWasters]

@@Shrednaught Fin keys take very little resin too so you get lots from leftovers. I'm going to do a video on how I've done them but its very simple to do.

[@Shrednaught]

Simple is the best. 👌

Nice job! Man you've got all the toys in your shed!!!!

[@Shrednaught]

Would you believe I found this lathe for sale for 40bucks. Only had it a few weeks. I used to do them just with a drill and sandpaper.

[@selwynrowe378]

@@Shrednaught Wow! What a great find!

Awesome man!

[@Woodyfromsd]

Very cool! Can you put Poly and Epoxy resin all together in the same thing or does some bad reaction occur?

[@Shrednaught]

Best to keep them seperate. But I have mixed them. I haven’t got to those blanks yet so I’ll see when I turn them whether they reacted terribly.

[@kyleharnadek1904]

Have you tried just tossing the birch round into the bottom of your resin cup before you pour any leftover resin in, could save yourself the gluing step

[@Shrednaught]

Yeh tbh the only one I glued up like this was this exact one for the video. It had a super uneven bottom. I’d normally just use 5min epoxy. But that’s a good idea 👍

[@cameronelliott984]

Love it! little bit of money, plus a lot of reusable materials
Where's the merch shop so you can sell these tho :p

[@Shrednaught]

Yew! Yeh always got to be funding the next build. I’m working on a website. At this rate it’ll be done by 2028 😅

[@garretdouglas4056]

Now I have to find a car to put one in. 😬

[@Shrednaught]

Haha.
I’ll be doing some fin keys and planters / candle holders too if you can’t find a car. Fin keys are probably my favourite

[@ZAGSurfboards]

How good are those polish pads..!

[@Shrednaught]

So good

[@JakeJohnson-ec4sm]

Hey man how would you recommend I get into something like this. I've been very depressed and surfing is holding everything together in my life and I'm deeply fascinated with shaping any advice ?
