Old school...bench






This is 40's style board I shaped to be a bench for Hamish.
The fact that anyone managed to paddle, let alone surf,
anything this heavy is impressive.

Longboard Skatedeck


Skating to work this morning I stopped by a rad shed
to take a couple of photo's of the first longboard I completed.

One way to re use a 120 year old house...


Two shots of the rich wood used in a surfboard bench for Hamish.


Rimu, matai, tawa and kauri from a 120 year old house being renovated.


I'm looking forward to shaping it this week

Cruiser Deck


Ben won the raffle for Samoa.
We caught up with him last weekend and he decided on a retro cruiser skate deck.


Built from 100% recycled wood of course.



Just another lick of gloss to go...
