Every stroke he took with his saw, adze, and planes was exactly right. The way he knew the feel and story each tool intimately is the sign of a master craftsman.
Mike Velzy, Dale's nephew, inspired me to take up surfing back in 1964 at Santa Monica Pier. I was 13 and continue to this day in my 70th year. Now I live in New Zealand.
Velzy is as cool as it gets. I'm so stoked to have a couple of my Dad's Velzys.

Great story, great man and great tools. I might start using these tools in the classes
My first two surfboards were balsa boards made by Velzy & Jacobs.
