Waiting for a new blank that i'm hoping will be here in a few days...... Uncle Rods new board, a 6'4" hydro simmons - one of Grant's - cheers dude - again!
Anyway, had a chunk of foam from when i made the last paipo and thought i'd make another. Decided to use the Agave stalk I've had leaning against the shed for the last 12 months, cool stuff but lousy to work. very hard on the outside, and softer than flax stalk inside. all okay when you glue it in, but as soon as you start foiling and exposing the center you have huge sdifferences in density, put that next to the foam and its very gently gently with the sandpaper. pics have come out a bit dark - i'll take some more as progress continues.
little patch up in the crack of that buttcrack i forgot about!
