Cameron, great channel thank you. Would be great if you could come up with a video showing your method for Rails measurements and tracing, along with the creation of the tool you use in this video and the different measurements that represents those holes in the tool. Congrats and Thanks a lot!
Beautiful Board and excellent videography! I'm shaping a twin fin fish right now and was wondering if a 6.5 degree for the fin placement would work okay? I'm going for a fast, loose skatey but drive feel to my board. Thanks!
I have one on order but i can't decide on the color yet. I love black tho. Black motorcycle, clothes, car, you name it. Black everything! Should i go black surfboard? Is there any cons beside absorbing heat faster.... thanks
Awesome video, Cameron! And sick board. Making that edit I reckon is harder than the shaping. Thanks for taking the time to film it and put it all together. Great job!
Nice movie, watched the whole thing. One question, many people on UA-cam say that the edges are the most fragile and that is where most of the damage occurs, but why didn't the first layer of fiberglass on the top go around the edge? Then it would have become extra durable, right? No criticism, just interested.
Hi bro! Your job is great! I m really impressed it. I’m envious in a kind way how cleverly and neatly everything turn out. Tell please what density of fiberglass do you use? I wish you good luck and a lot of orders.
Nice job! I’ve been glassing my own boards on and off for a long time, and man, I’m really learning a lot from your videos! Hope you don’t mind answering all of my questions, please… 1) Is the yellow sander a Dewalt? 2) What grit sand paper do you use to grind down the rough stuff after laminating? 3) What grit sand paper do you use to sand the hot coat? 4) Do you use the same pad on the yellow sander for grinding the rough spots after laminating as you do when sanding the hot coat? 5) What stiffness or kind of pad do you use on the yellow sander? 6) Are you using a 5” pad on the yellow sander? Thanks again!🤙🏼
1. yes 2. 80 3. first hot coat i sand the deck and bottom with 120 and the rails with 220 4/5. I use the same pad, but it’s a slightly softer aftermarket pad 6. yes Let me know if i’ve answered your questions. feel free to come back if you have more :)
@@CameronSardo Thanks so much for answering! I was checking out the same Dewalt today on Amazon so I’ll order one tomorrow. I have never been comfortable sanding boards with my big ass right angle Makita but that Dewalt with the motor above the pad seems like it would balance nicely. I don’t see your 5” pad on the Surf Supply website. Do you remember the brand of that pad and where you got it?
@@joeblow1942 I honestly can't remember where it came from but googling something like dewalt 5 inch sanding pad should come up with some pretty close options
I use the Makita 9237 for sanding, with 7” yellow, red and orange Flexpads, Indasa sandpaper (white line for rough sanding). For grinding laps, a Milwaukee 5000rpm with a 7” spiral cool + phenolic backing plate, using 60 grit drinking disc. Here’s a note I made for the rough sand you’re asking about, the #’s (1-4) are speed settings on the makita. * Grind down leash cup (grinder) * Grind down fin boxes (grinder, 60) * Work from opposite side of stringer * Grind down bottom laps (grinder, 60) * Until no shine at the lap * ~2” wide pass * Overlap passes 100% (eliminates wheel marks) * Grind down lap line on patched logo’s (grinder, 60) * Only lap area * Work from opposite side of stringer * Sand down deck lap (hard orange, 60 grit, 4) * Only lap area * < 1” wide pass * Overlap pass 100% * Sand down tail patch and/or deck patch (hard orange, 60, 4) * Blend first lap line first, then hit whole patch * Further blend laps on bottom (hard orange, 60, 4) * Get lap area perfectly flat * Further blend lap on deck (medium red, 80, 3) * Sand just out to where the rail starts to tuck, past lap line * Sand deck (medium red, 80, 3) * Overlap passes 50% * Further blend resin lap on bottom (medium red, 80, 3) * Sand just out to where the rail starts to tuck, past lap line * Sand bottom (medium red, 80, 3) * Overlap passes 50% * Hit all previously sanded areas, deck and bottom, and smooth out (soft yellow, 120, 1) * Overlap passes 100% * Sand rails, deck and bottom (soft yellow, 120 used, < 1) * Establish hard-to-soft edge rail transition * Rail bands (tip to tail, hold machine tangential to rail, pressing hard, barely any trigger) * At the 3-4” from nose and tail, no trigger * Flip board on side and fine tune the rails, tip of nose & tail (soft block, used 120 grit) * Any sort of wheel mark = flat spot!! * Further fine tune rails and tip of nose (hand, used 120 grit), use paper as a screen
Amazing video! The editing is top notch as well. You only realize that the editing maybe more painstaking than the tape work for those panels after your done with the board. Never shaped a board, but if and when I do I'll be referencing these videos on repeat. Board came out beautiful. Really well done sir! Only criticism is... I want more videos now!!! 😉🤙
Great sanding technique! What tool do you use for sanding the hot coat? What's the rpm range you use there? How soft or hard is the pad? And what sand paper grit do you start with on the hot coat and gloss coat? Lots of questions I know! Sorry :)
the extra tuck on the nose gives it a bit of a triplane to it. ryan lovelace has some super in depth explanations of triplanes if you’re interested in that. the extra rail bands on the nose and tail are kind of just guides for me. i don’t necessarily blend exactly to the line, but i’m able to see that i’m taking the same amount off on either side of that makes sense
Nice shaping mate , and great taping skills . The board turned out nicely . But I'd never use black pigment on your boards if you're going to surf the tropics , the warm water and sun melts your wax real quick !! 🙂
@@CameronSardo Stay cool and keep up the shaping vids . I don't miss the stink of resin and acetone 🤢 No dark " colours " here on your wax haha Hi from Coolum 👍
Beautiful board man! Was wondering two things. I recently shaped and glassed a board, and I didn't have a variable sander so I did it all by hand and the board works just fine but visually it looks pretty bad because I didn't sand nearly enough. So my question is what kind of sander do you use and what is the process for grits of sand paper at each step that you use? When I was doing it I was constantly worried I would sand to much and go through the cloth etc, so what is your process? Additionally, I did fin boxes before glassing, do you find it easier to dot hat step after you are done glassing?
i use a dewalt 5 inch variable speed sander. for the first hot coat i’ll sand 120 and 220 and for the gloss coat i’ll sand 320, 400, 600, and 800. learning to not sand through the cloth is something that you’ll just need to learn with experience unfortunately. for the fin boxes, some go in before glassing and some go in after. it just depends on the type of box you get. feel free to ask more questions or lmk if i didn’t answer yours fully :)
How do you usually sand the the board right after you glass it? And I did a shortboard so I didn’t bother with a gloss coat so would that impact how much I should sand hot coat?
@@CameronSardo With my first time glassing a board, I had a lot of extra resin on some parts of the board because i didn't do it fast enough and it hardened on me, so there were a lot of shiny spots. I obviously have learned from that and know that is the first thing I should worry about, but if there is a lot of shiny spots where more resin dried on the board how should I sand that down before doing the hot coat, because I feel like that is what made the board look pretty rachet ?
if it’s small bumps you can try to sand them down, but ultimately it’s just going to be an aesthetic problem and i think that’s better than sanding it too thin and having a structural problem. I’d also recommend starting with no pigment or opaque pigments if you’re not comfortable glassing yet as they’re much more forgiving
Hey nice effort and work man! But i also build surfboards and have few questions: 1. Is it necessary to overlap the glassing both time into the surface. I find it lot easier to grind it less visible if i take one line on the edge... until now it was enoughe stabile and dindnt crack... 2.isn't it requiered to take the main layer above the fin case? Did it hold so fare as you did? And the same for the leash? 3. Did you use normal laminating resin for fillering? And was only one coat applied? I had once some troubles with bubbles... did you torched? 4. Was you able to catch waves with it? My last board i tride somthing semi convex... it was horrible... your shaping looks nice... but the edges are rounded pretty hard downsides... can you really take a curve/transition...? Id like to give a try ;) Greatings from the swiss
not quite sure what you’re asking in question 1. for 2, the finbox and leashplug that i’m using are designed to be installed this way. i haven’t had any problems with them so far. 3, i used sanding resin for the hot coat/ filler coat (laminating resin with some additives to make sanding easier.) 4, i didn’t ride this board because i had to hand it over to a shop but i’ve made this shape a few times with success. the single nose concave and single fin board set up is a pretty specific type of surfing. works really well in small-medium southern California waves.
hey man, love the board and work you put in. i watched your videos because i am looking to start making surfboards, if it is possible what would be all of the tools i would need (or what you have). thanks a lot man and keep up the great designs mate
in the lamination i do not use any wax. while sanding the cut lap it does gum up the sand paper but it should definitely cure far enough so that it’s not tacky at all when you touch it. i use ~1% catalyst/resin depending on the temperature outside
Nice vid! About the out of the focus shots - it seems that your camera autofocus is setted up to AUTO mode? Better to focus Manualy, so there is no chance that the camera with focuse/re-focus during the filming..Cheers, Milos/Apatyka surfboards
@@CameronSardo Ah sorry for misspelling/mistakes.. I was writting in a hurry and I am not a native english speaker as well haha (bad combo aye..). But anyway, you got the point I think:) With the manual focus I meant to focus manualy before you will start recording - pick up place, where you would like to have the focus, focus there, start filming.. you know what I mean, I just wanted to be clear :) Looking forward to some more videos! Btw, some music as a background could be good as well, but I like it without it as well:) Cheers
yeah, i got what you were saying. the main problem for my situation is when my hands are covered in resin and i need to get a different angle/shot. autofocus let’s me touch the camera/lens the least amount possible. definitely could use manual focus on some of the still shots though. i’ll add that this is also my first time trying to film video so all advice is greatly appreciated. thanks for your comments
@@CameronSardo Ah yeah, got it. And I can imagine how difficult it can be to build board and film a video at the same time! :) Hat off man! Btw, maybe something like this could be the soluton for you ua-cam.com/video/4Rcl016du_A/v-deo.html&ab_channel=Engineerable It should be easy to make one as a little DIY project :) Then you could focus manualy without touching the lense :))) cheers
the amount of catalyst depends on a lot of things such as temperature, use, and amount of resin. For blanks, if you’re just starting shaping, i’d stick with stock density and just make sure it’s wide and long enough for the shape you want to make.
Festool is nice when hooked up to a vacuum but ridiculously expensive. You can save a small fortune though by using the dual mode Bosch with any shop vac.

great board, I had a G&S single fin gun same color as your build in the mid 80s
So much time goes into filming and editing next to making the board itself. Cheers!
Great looking board. Good job
Just had to re watch this again. Man, how did you not sand through the first hotcoat!
I have one on order but i can't decide on the color yet. I love black tho. Black motorcycle, clothes, car, you name it. Black everything! Should i go black surfboard? Is there any cons beside absorbing heat faster.... thanks
Great work ! 👍🏼

Very nice result.
very good made me tingle
Awesome video, Cameron! And sick board. Making that edit I reckon is harder than the shaping. Thanks for taking the time to film it and put it all together. Great job!
Well done. I did make one dark board and found I had a hard time keeping the wax from melting on hot days.

Why did you put pigment in the filler coat? Just to get it more opaque?
yeah just to maximize opaqueness. the contrast of the white foam shows super easily.

When glassing with poly what measurements or ratios do you use for all lam, hot coat, finish
for the final sanding can you give the different grains used and same for the water paper? thank you
sorry for my english
for the final sanding i use 320 then 400 dry. then i use 600 and 800 wet sanding. some people go to 1200 but i find that 800 works well enough.

I always have a problem mixing the resin with the hardener (catalyst) do you use wax in the glassing or just the mixture of resin and hardener ?
the resin never get hard enough and I have trouble because it become gummy on the surface.

Hi 👋 great job , did you use poliester resin?
thank you! yeah I use polyester resin
Where do you get your blanks from?
us blanks
How much resin did you use for the top and bottom?
Trabalhoso mais fantástico.
Que resina ocupas?
Thanks! How much catalyst do u use? And how do i choose the right blank?
the amount of catalyst depends on a lot of things such as temperature, use, and amount of resin. For blanks, if you’re just starting shaping, i’d stick with stock density and just make sure it’s wide and long enough for the shape you want to make.
If Bjorn Borg created a surfboard, I love it…
Que tipo de fibra usas ??
What do you use for hoat coat and gloss?
most surf supply stores will call it sanding resin. usually comes premixed but it’s polyurethane resin with styrene and a wax additive
Beautiful...
great job, but get your self a festool random orbiter sander its soooooo much easier to handle for the finish stages ;)
thanks I might have to look into that!
Festool is nice when hooked up to a vacuum but ridiculously expensive. You can save a small fortune though by using the dual mode Bosch with any shop vac.
Cam. Hope you don’t get hit by a Great White! Board looks Sweet take Care
thanks! i’ll try hahaha
Woaaaawww !!!
Sicked one
Nice
is that red resin?
yes
Poliéster? Resina catalised?
Excelente shaper
Nice board but that is a waxmelter, especially where I surf. Must be used and designed for cold weather though.
For sure. It looks super cool though.

Long… Slow…. Smooth…

It's sad sum people don't realize how much time & work goes into a board, and they think it costs too much! If they only knew .....
So so many mistakes and just impatience! Sit down with a cup of coffee and watch Jack Reeves glass a board.
Bellissimo!!
