How to make a longboard

[jazoner1]

@93nf hey mate how much did the three sheets of ply cost? (or 1 sheet before u divided it to 3.)

[giantsfan879]

@93nf

1) What type of wood?

2) How thick was each piece of wood?

[littleminikid]

Hey i live in Australia also and i was wondering what wood you used and where you got the wood from?

Please answer

[dacshore]

@5:30 Time to....FOOT BRAKE!!!

[ozziejbr97]

nice deck

im assuming you live in australia i will pay you 50 bux to make me one just the same

[93nf]

@ozziejbr97 hey mate..never done a sale before so not 100% on it.. im in perth, where abouts are you?

[ozziejbr97]

@93nf hey man was that 35 bucks to make with the mould press or just for the deck

[superempere]

@93nf yeah seriously man i would pay u if ur up to it. im in us tho so shipping will be a bit of a bitch...... and just the deck alone is all i want

[ozziejbr97]

@ozziejbr97 i live a bit north of sydney, im about an hour from newcastle in a place called port stephens

and obviously i would pay for postage and all that stuff

[abitofvariety]

Hey my name is Nick too.

[USA17HR]

I have 2 questions

1 dose it have any flex?

2 have they ever snapped before?

[93nf]

@USA17HR yes to both, both increase with age and use :P cant find a good enough glue, if u get the real deal glue your set

[USA17HR]

@93nf k thanx bro nice video! might wanna try useing gorrilla glue and c if that works!

[inferno2080]

Oh and BTW despite what everone else said, I think the grip is sick!

[timmy5gh1]

how many inches is the board

[kdub4bud]

the underside of that deck was pretty sick... griptape not so much. You should have cut out a design rather than trying to make it fill

[CzechRepublic77]

Almost looks professional. Except the griptape, it would be cool if you stained a similar design on the top and then used clear grip. But it looks nice.

[SellBroTV]

hey um how thick and what kind of wood did you use?

[mcrchie]

ah I love longboarding barefoot

[JaYBoI69r]

the griptape ruined it..

[brooksyeei]

hey i was looking at making one soo. i was just wondering what glue you use and the thickness of the pieces of ply

[PERRONmedia]

mongo FTW!

but the grip totally ruined the classy look of the deck

[WalkerSomerville]

shoulda fiberglassed it

[TheMidas333]

mongo u suck !!

[alex313313]

sick other than the shit grip

[simonsimon4131]

so....you built the press, but then didn't use it to create concave??



[93nf]

@simonsimon4131 yeh I did, that pic was not a good interp, weight was not set and I spun the board round, worker well, you just need a shit of weight, I used litterally 50 to 60 bricks

[TheSurfboarder]

what kind of wood did you use?

[Rosasmaria]

hey could u send me the details on how to build a longboard press? Also could u use that press with any other deck Designs?

[Rosasmaria]

hey could u send me the details on how to build a longboard press?

[zerordie95]

mongo!!!

[SuzyVee]

Which wood did you use for the deck? :) Thanks

[L33TTa1k]

how thick is the wood u used for the deck

[jakeyboy12334]

what type of wood did you use?

[nathanieljorden]

good job! best ive seen yet :)

[MATTQUINLAN100]

your board is sick i am making one at the moment your one is so good it looks factory made. bomb hills and slide

[randomlarrynator]

can it carve well?

[93nf]

@randomlarrynator yes very well, i'd say the only flaw is the ply i used had made to too flexy, but this means it pumps out of turns very powerfully

[DNEUSTACHE]

from

[DNEUSTACHE]

i have a question what is the length for the nose of the board to the tail of the board?

[93nf]

@DNEUSTACHE ahaha i did it mostly by eye but its aprox 1m long

[DNEUSTACHE]

nice board

[Quekil830]

what is the name of the second song you played and Nice board

[93nf]

@Quekil830 bohemian like you by the dandy warhols

[JkAllDayHills]

showing a bunch of pictures isnt all that helpful, myabe if you explained what was going on and what some of the things did more people would find this more helpful

[93nf]

@JkAllDayHills maybey, if i had time i would but year 12 is pretty full on, finished board right before sem started

[speedballxpro]

How long should the mold be?

[93nf]

@speedballxpro i made mine about 10cm longer than the board either end so i could use it for other boards later on that might be a bit longer, so i think its about 120cm long

[Hoosim14]

yo can u PLEASE tell me what thickness and length of your board (preferably in inches)

[93nf]

@Hoosim14 Hey, umm well I don't know inches and all that stuff sorry, but apparently 1inch = 25mm, I used 3 sheets of 4mm ply for the board so unless it has expanded from water absorption or was compressed more in the mould that would be ~1/2inch i think.

[Hoosim14]

@93nf oh yeah, what kinda wood did u use

[93nf]

@Hoosim14 just ordianry machine grade ply wood, nothing special but best i could find ( limited availability in Australia)

[joeythefishbadafuko]

great deck just 1 question wat type of wood did you use?

[93nf]

@joeythefishbadafuko check previous reply's answered that question plenty of times

[midnightcobra1111]

nice board bro...what type of wood, thickness, and how many layers?

[J84735]

What order do you glue, press, and cut out?

[93nf]

@J84735 I glued the sheets, drew my board shape on top piece, put in press, took it out and cut it out, make sure you draw your board in middle of wood so the effect of press is even

[thisisnice57]

nice board but you soo ruined it with the grip tape it didn't even fit lolz but still nice (: xx

[thisisnice57]

nice board but you soo ruined it with the grip tape it didn't even fit lolz but still nice (: xx

[Heckasuperduper]

wtf? why are the cars not on the right side of the road? maybe they are on the right side of the road? you guys got everything backwards. Blimey!!!

[93nf]

@Heckasuperduper ahaha everything is backwards in Australia...or is is backwards where you come from?

[MrTrialsrider]

that deck looks amazing.... the grip tape would look better if you had done strips to go with the finish on the underside. still great looking board though, good work. A++

[93nf]

@MrTrialsrider thanks mate

[SlurryAdam]

@93nf which would be more efficient? your press or some wight press?

[SlurryAdam]

@93nf Should i apply the glue before or after the press? What would be more better? the kind of press you're using or just some wights?

[93nf]

@SlurryAdam hey man.. umm i really dont know aye, mine worked well for me havent tried any other methods so i dont know enough to give you a good answer

[FazziBear5689]

@MrTrialsrider Or he could have done a finish design on the top and used clear griptape. Thats that I did with my board and it works great!

[crackedjacker]

what kinda of plywood

[123tam000]

how do u make tht curve

[93nf]

@123tam000 If you look at my mould pics I dropped the 3 middle pieces by a bit and raised the two end ones by a bit

[123tam000]

@93nf ok I see, so basically right after I glue, I add some weight to the sides and use the clamps to keep them there

[93nf]

@123tam000 yes, whatever mould your using you need a decent amount of weight to make sure the board does actually fit into the mould...and yes you can make without fiberglass..but I made 2 boards before this that broke because of the poor quality of wood, you really do need good ply for it all to stay together, and good water resistant glue

[123tam000]

@123tam000 and also I noticed u didnt use fiberglass, so its still possible to make the board without using i?

[weallnowitzness]

pm me the dimensions plz i need to do it for this woodshop thing

[weallnowitzness]

pm me the dimensions plz i need to do it for this woodshop thing

[hockeyboypk77]

how much for the trucks?

and what kind?

[generalducttape]

So how much did trucks/wheels/bearings cost? And what kind did you get?

[93nf]

@generalducttape wheels are retro zigzag ~ $50, bearing are bones reds ~ $40 and trucks are just these tracker lonboarding series, still decent though, good stability and whellbase ~ $70

[Shadowatmidnight104]

Very nice design man, looks like an awesome board too. I might just have to try this sometime!

[Goochy51]

i love the design of the board, good job man

[eyewear]

the song is by oasis - whats the story (morning glory)

[bakonlicious]

where did you buy your wood

[93nf]

like i said below i just bought manufacturing ply from a hardware store

[svennnebanan]

how much weight did you use?

[93nf]

for my mould??? um not really sure, honestly about 40 bricks

[JoseDaSmasher]

Thanks alot man!

[03prinz]

what kind of wood? birch? maple? or oak? or something else

[93nf]

Hey guys

Cheers for the comments Umm board has camber but edges curve up to give it concave like effect, used just a manufacturing ply, although the best quality I could get my hands on, dont know what wood is in it though

[MrMartinf2]

really nice job dude! 5*****

[DehOnWeed]

[93nf]

[mrfattyh1]

[mrfattyh1]
