Tonight, we finished the first phase of our board building and have all five of our blanks ready to go. The next step is to find a spot where we'll be able to glass the boards. We need to do the shaping and glassing all in the same spot, because we can't risk dinging the boards once they're shaped, trying to move them. We also need to find a spot we can heat easily, because the epoxy resin we'll use for glassing needs to cure around room temperature. So, the hunt is on. We're also still in the process of ordering our fins, and glassing materials, and finding the tools we need to do the detail shaping. We can't wait to keep going, so hopefully we can find a spot soon.
Also, the results of our first poll have been tallied. As you can see to the left, we received 20 votes from our fine visitors. 45% of you seem to think that these boards will attract sharks, more than twice as much as thinks they will catch fire. This doesn't bode well for Kat and I, as we are morbidly afraid of sharks. I don't' think anyone is a fan of catching fire either. Hopefully you are all wrong. Stay tuned for our next poll, we are hoping to finalize some logos and get you voting on those soon!
Here's a few pics of our five blanks to tide you over until we get the shaping process started!
