LORDS OF LAM!!!!

[Crappysurfer]

yeah so Dr.Worm and I (crappysurfer2) got bored today, on account of the rain, and having the priviledge of two great minds at once, we created the v lam board of doom!! 82 verticle monkeys!, its not finished yet, and please disregard my low quality web cam. this board 1 1/2" of camber. it has lots of rebound and we are looking forward to fibreglassing it.

I was thinking about trying something like that a while ago. I just stuck with h-lam though, and I think I will until I get my hands on a planer.

[king of nothing]

What kind of wood is that?

[doctor worm]

i think its maple

[El Beefo]

Very nice, but how did you put camber into it?

[weasel on fire]

where do you guys get the thin strips of the maple? did you cut them yourself, or buy some really long ones and cut them down?

i wanna try making a couple of different vlam decks one flexy with small peices and then one big big board with larger perices to vlam

[meaningoflife]

We want more details on the construction of this board!

[confusious]

looks to me like you guys ate a bunch of popsicles, then when the sugar hit you, decided to glue all the sticks together to make a board.....very nice

almost reminds me of how a loaded board looks, possibly due to the webcam quality

Looks good!!! So ,did you v-lam strips of ply... or did you rip tons of narrow strips of solid wood ,thenlaminate them?? Either way ,good job . Keep it up.

we had a big sheet of one maple veneer, and cut out 82 curved pieces. then glued and cut it out. the veneers werent equal, so some sanding necesse est.

Enter it in the board building contest!

[yum yum]

it looks quite yummy!

[doctor worm]

ill enter it when its done. i plan to put two layers of fiberglass on the bottom and one on the top. ill also add a mexican burial skeleton on the bottom because the shape reminds me of a coffin.

[doctor worm]

heres some new pics of the board

[weasel on fire]

whats the flex gonna look like?

[doctor worm]

tons of flex now, after the fiberglass i dont know what it will be like. it is extremely high rebound though.

Sound great. It'll be a strong contender in the contest.

Ted from roarrockit is giving some awesome wood to the winner of
the contest.

Everyone put in your best effort and get your entries in!

I can't wait to see all the finished boards.

Voting is going to be impossible as always.

I just want to ride them all.
