[IGcolin]

@elserver593 nose protector u mean? it came with a glue for epoxy /poly.

[elserver593]

@IGcolin yeah! nose protector i'm sorry, thank's dude!, but the one that i have is just a protector of silicone i will put it with epoxy thanks again dude

[IGcolin]

@elserver593 mine was from a black silicone also and it came with his "superglue" glue. so using a fast glue i think is ok.

[elserver593]

@IGcolin I'll try with glue or maybe epoxy. Thanks dude!

[emilyistheraddest]

whats the tool he is using in 2:13? im from the midwest and know nothing about shaping boards

[bobbz64]

that's a a wood planer.

[surfingpinetrees]

How do you get the foam of the board to stick to the stringer when making a board?

[Inzehambay]

@surfingpinetrees if you're talking about chopping a board in half etc then you can use resin on each side of the stringer.

To keep pressure while it sets you basically fashion a rack to go on the top side and put bricks on top of it.

There's an online book that explains it if you google search it

[goosey000]

the thing that you use at 2:09 is that just a normal sander?

[AndrewsAirsoftReview]

Its called a Planer. It evens out the surface.

[paulblackpb]

@goosey000 its a planer. it has a counter rotating tapered blade underneath.

[808eeks]

[JetJockey87]

XPS foam is stronger, lighter and easier to mould.
