Today I finished glassing my board minus the hot coats I have to do tomorrow. I’m getting better at glassing and not letting all the resin on the floor so kudos to me. Here are some picks from the process:
After the first top coat.
Lots of different coloured beads of resin reside on the corner of the thing that hold a surfboard when shaping/glassing.
I think this is after the 2nd top coat. Not sure…
Mitch waiting for the leash loop hole to dry.
Apparently somebody threw a wallet at his face and it knocked him out.
Evidence 1A.
If you look up the word classic or awesome in the dictionary, you’ll see these things. I swear by them.
Shaper’s/Glasser’s shoe bottoms look somewhat like this.(if you work in a garage)
Unused UV catalysted resin bubbling in the sun.
Resin goes everywhere.
It’s time like these that make me happy that my asian hairlessness makes it less painful when ripping resin off my skin.
You better have an awesome matt when you glass because you’re floor is gonna get messssed up.
I lied, the picture before of the bottom was just the first coat. This one is the 2nd coat curing.
No clue why the clock was on Mitch’s board but now it’s a time machine.
