And now for the Glassing of the Surfboards

glassing of the wooden surfboards in brisbane by bywater design

After the dust (or wood shavings) have settled after our fantastic July Wooden Surfboard class, its now time to prep the surboards and commence the glassing or resin coating.

Once we have placed the fin boxes its now time for the "frosting"

Besides the aesthetic appeal of the resin coating ie it makes our wooden surfboards look super glossy ( and who doesnt love something shiny) the resin coating provides a barrier for the water whilst sealing and providing extra strength to the boards, because we know these boards are going to get thrashed around in the ocean - well we hope they are !

So we are in the stages of resin coating these boards and already they are looking amazing

Stay tuned for the final layer of icing on the cake
