Perfect weather, so what's better than to sand outdoors..
That's me with the small board. Stoked!
Colors in the garden
I wanted to make a smooth, visible/feel.. flow between carbon rail and deck.
This is not a cutlap construction. (Swop surfboards got some nice examples of nice carbon cutlaps here and here!. )
This is a stronger double layer construction. So it was a matter of carefully sanding. Sean's rails were a perfect example. Nice craftmanship, that you don't have to hide with a thick/wide pinstripe.
Sean's rail (really perfect, I can't come close)
Close up of my finished rail. Think it looks nice like this. I'm not going to cover up with a wide pinstripe, or a painted deck. Think just a thin white pinline, so you can still see the flow of the sanded carbon
Now it's time for a bbq and some beers
