Mike,

Many thanks. I did pick up a few things.

1. I had been wondering how you cramped the tail/nose blocks,
2. I see you were pretty generous with the glue. I've bought epoxy glue, so probably need to do a bit more clean up before it dries.
3. About 8 clamps, top & bottom.

Do you have any tips about shaping the bottom? I've seen straight edges used to get an even thickness/bottom curve, but am interested in what approach you take to reduce the thickness. I was considering making marks on the bottom to guide the planing.

regards

bob

Mike,

Thanks. Feel free to say no - at some stage I'd be interested to see your system of pencil marks. I was reading a book that recommended a grid system, but this was for surfboards where the rails are more complex.

My alaia is fairly flat. just a bit of roll in the deck - I would taken the thickness out of the bottom, so good to know you take a bit off the deck as well. If you think of it sometime, I'd be interested to see a pic of the shaped bottom before you start on the deck.

regards

Bob
