Cam! I've been following the channel for a long time, but I just realized in this video at 1:50 how successful you truly are, and I would give anything to have that stock of my favorite drink by my fridge. Hats off to you.
Hey Cam, love the channel and your work is freakin’ breathtaking! The spilled dye on your table saw reminded me of when I spilled tung oil on my digital calipers, yikes (that part of the desk looks great now though 🤣) I enjoy your sense of humor, honest and course, your talent. Now just a rub on the genie’s lamp and I’ll have a shop like yours…or just with hard work, take yer pick. 🙂🪵💍
This is sooo pretty!!! Might do it someday... By the way, what's the difference between the first bottle of epoxy (big one) and the second one (smaller)?
Hey man do you just wash the epoxy off of your mixing tools before it cures? If so how do you go about washing them without tossing the epoxy down the drain?
@@BlacktailStudio I respect your opinion, but there's a reason why skates are made from plywood, resistance, flexibility and axis of inertia well aligned. That doesn't happen with that method. If you want a skate for daily use or to practice that's not the best option, but if you go to take a ride once in a while, I understand that it's ok
@@tyyamnitz8408 plywood skates have normally 7 layers of plywood, the fibers pointing to different directions, so you can get hardness combined with elasticity and low weight. The problem here is the clapboard combined with resin, both has different density and elasticity so you wouldn't get a balanced board as you can get with a normal plywood board. If you throw that skate to a wall, the resin will chip easily because of it's hardness, it's fragile, something you don't want in a skate. Think this way, why there's no skaters using this kind of boards? Why are all plywood skateboards? Scientists has discovered many different materials, but no one is as good and cheap as plywood. This boards are beautiful, but that's not the main propose of skate boards.
They’re longboards(pretty short but still longboards). You obviously couldn’t do any flip tricks or anything like that on it but as long as you keep the wheels on the ground it should be fine lol.
Alright where can I get the liquid plastic? I can’t find it anywhere and not even on ecopoxy’s website. Do I NEED to use their liquid plastic or is their flowcast 2:1 ok?
Every time I watch the videos of this project and see the pink epoxy, I can’t help but think about the “mood slime” from ghostbusters 2

Love the skateboard. I've learned a lot. Let´s try it. Thanks.
I just checked your website for the first time today. Man, you have some amazing work on your site!
Oh thanks!
@@BlacktailStudio My Pleasure
I love that purple, my husband used that tint on his guitar he built
Beautiful man. Definitely inspired to try it myself!
That’s awesome to hear, definitely do it!!
Watching this 4 years later after seeing the short. How he changed over 4 years

Looks like a watermelon pink to me and I would definitely own these boards
Thanks!!
Good video :)
Matthew Kramer hey thanks! Good comment.
I want one, please!!!
Nice work
Just imagining how hard it is to balance on them
That color epoxy looks like it might make a toaster dance
This is the 1st skateboard video that I have ever watched. I hate skateboarders, but I enjoy wood working ;)
Yeah, I don’t/can’t skateboard. Just like making things
I just watched part 2, awesome! but that slab of wood .... would have made a beautiful bar top.
Lol what's wrong with skateboarders? We arent all scumbags you know 🤣
Damn found this from the short
Hey! What were the measurements of your board??? and how much epoxy did you need per board???
30x9”. And don’t remember how much epoxy 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Blacktail Studio gotcha!! Thank you so much!!

It’s a 2 part system that you have to mix
have you ever considered using KP Pigments?

Na, let it dry and break it off
How strong is the board
Medium strong
There longboards but I like the art
Where?
That's like saying it's not a table it's a coffee table there still skateboards you absolute sossage
@@tubybubi there
I wonder if that would be more or less strong than a full wooden skateboard, like if it’s strong enough to ride.
Probably not great
Less strong. Plywood, one of its pros is amazing strength.
I skate for more than 15 years, it's beautiful as artwork but not good for skating at all.
I wouldn’t think so

@@renatoguerreiro179 why wouldn't this method be as functional as plywood?

I’d use liquid glass now. It’s on amazon
Where is link for template? Thanks
It’s gone
Why use dye instead of stain?
Long conversation probably
I don’t remember watching this
Where can I order the template?
