i had been wanting to shape a surfboard for a few years now. back in july-august, i finally did something about it.
my brother-in-law has been shaping boards in his garage for a little while now, so i enlisted his help in making this dream come true.
here are the final photos after polishing and buffing and all that stuff...

lessons learned:
1. shaping a surfboard is no joke.
2. it is amazingly rewarding to surf a board that you made
with your own two hands. SPECIAL.
3. measure, not twice, but five times, cut once.
