Lol this brings back memories of when I was a kid watching Juan the owner of Western Flyer shape boreds. my dad was really good friends with him.

Nicely done, the planer got a bit hungry on the concave, but good recovery.....you may want to do a final plane pass on the stringer after final sanding just to make sure it is not a high spot in the glass, to minimize sanding issues. I did around 750 mostly longboard shapes in Hawaii in the 90s and early 2000s, got the urge to make myself a couple of new ones.

You can also ask questions at the supply shops you buy your materials from. The more boards you make the more comfortable you become. Good luck!

Hey Tanner, I've watched your videos and shaped a few boards. I'm still struggling to understand the bottom tuck part, especially when using the greenlight charts because they use tucks like 3/4".. but if I measure and cut off 3/4" that's quite a big chunk and my rail will end up ridiculous 😂 what measurement do you use for the bottom tuck and how does it differ on short/longs

@BendheimBoards

2 жыл бұрын

It just depends on how boxy or knifey you want your rails to look. I usually try to keep a 1/4" untouched band around the outline of the board from the first rail mark down to preserve the outline before screening my rails. Yes, 3/4" is a very thick cut, I'd usually start around 1/4" tuck and then go off feel under your arm to make any further adjustments.

I followed you on Instagram... I want to get into this because I love surfing and this looks like something I would really enjoy... for foam blanks I was looking at Marko foam, is there another brand I should use?? also do I need the custom electric planer, or could I just find one on amazon and it would work.

@BendheimBoards

3 жыл бұрын

Awesome, thanks for the support! I use US Blanks, but Marko foam is just as good. If your worried about cost, I would start with hand sanding for your first board. Its a lot more work, but less room to make mistakes when hand sanding. The WEN planer I have was only $42 from home depot. Its not as good as the others, but I do a low volume of boards and it gets the job done.

Hi tanner! Any advice on how would you do 50/50 rails? I kinda don’t know how to do this....

@BendheimBoards

3 жыл бұрын

The middle of your rail is the apex and the rail bands are the same measurements on the top and bottom of the board. Checkout Greenlight’s website that has lots of measurement info for rail bands.

WOW TOP surfer 🤙🤙🌊🌊🤙🤙🤙🏄‍♂️🏄‍♂️🌊🌊🤙🤙🤙

When drawing your rail marks, what do you do on the tail and nose of the board when the thickness foils out? (It looks like the deck marks you did nose to tail?) And for the tuck, do you stop it a certain distance from the tail in order to maintain the hard bottom edge of the rail? Thanks for these videos, they rock!!!

@BendheimBoards

3 жыл бұрын

Thanks man! Great question. You have to gradually taper your rail marks to follow the thickness of the board. So my rail lines on the tail and nose are narrower - especially the nose. I mostly just eyeball it and freehand draw it rather than measuring it on the nose and tail. You are correct about the the tail edge. I mark where I want my hard edge to begin on both sides so my tuck line doesn't sand into it and then just make a gradual transition from the rail to the hard edge.
