Day 1 - the beginning of the end

Our first day of actual construction today. There's been a lot of build-up to this moment. Lots of blood, sweat and tears (Andrew won't stop crying about these friggin' boards). We've already built our own hotwire tool, which is pretty darn cool if I do say so myself, and we've stocked up on the materials we need to get started - big foam blocks, masonite sheets for templates, tools of every shape and sort, and a winningest attitude - the boards don't float without the attitude.

Our first day consists of carefully and lovingly tracing out our full-size paper templates onto masonite, and cutting out the templates with a jigsaw. Not the most exciting process in the whole job, but we are amped up enough that it seems awesome! Pics to follow from Drew's camera...
