It's always fun to peek into the Mad Scientist's lab. Good info!
Seeing the care you take in your work makes me want to buy a deck.
Keep up the good work on documentation. |

Thanks for giving us more inside infos.
I just wonder how you just sand the deck in shape after making a rough cut. Don't you use a template to route/ trace the shape?
Make a master template of the shape and then trace it with a pin/bearing router bit.....
I cut my decks with a jigsaw, then iron out the rough spots with a beltsander then round the edges. |

Is throwing the horns during the glueing and layup process as critical as it seems? 
Nice press. |

That was the "care" that "makes me want to buy a deck"... |

Throwing horns, listening to the right music. Its all about putting the right energy in to each deck.
I was listening to metallica because I was making a deck that was exceptional and I pictured someone who likes heavy metal or fast skating riding it.
Sometimes I put biggie smalls in there for the little 7.5 popcicle decks.
I pass the energy into the deck.
I always do that, it makes a difference.
As for yoyo, I use two methods for cutting, I was meaning to add the other method later....I use a template for the pool pig shape still. That method is done in reverse, drilling a wheelbase, then putting it on a jig and using a template and a high speed router.
The page is sort of geared at the do it yourselfer, so I am trying to pass along cheap and easy techniques first.
However the drawn shape/roughcut method is still the only way to do shapes like the "sidecut", the"demon", and the "saw.
Their shapes would be very difficult to produce with a jig.
and thanks Blair, I love bessie the pressie!!

If I order a deck can you insure that The Angry Samoans will be playing for the pressing process??

Yah, one with 18" wheelbase and a rocker, steep tri-tail and super deep concave that extends past the front truck bolts  |
