Thanks Surfintiki, TeaKEy and Seeksurf :D :D

Hooked in and got a bunch done on the board today. Here you can see the concave in the middle and the rails at the side ready for shaping

View from the top

Final shape, still needed final sanding at this stage :D

Nose of the board shaped. just needs to be smoothed out a little

Woohoo, sanding is done, time for some marine grade varnish. Love how it brings out the colour and grain in the wood

Pretty happy with how it looks

Shot of the end gives you an idea of the profile, lurvely caurves eh?

mmmmm, wood

I had to get an arty shot in :wink:

Just needs a couple more coats of varnish and she's good to surf. :D :D
