The problem with the null flex in the sandwich construction with okume board has been the thickness of the core. as I put 30mm xps has created an ultra strong structure. the next experiment I'm going to do with a thickness of 10mm xps for the core. I am trying to win flex but without putting 3 okume...

the problem of making paipos of only wood is the lack of buoyancy, I do not want a bodyboard but something that floats a bit more than my current paulownia

there are aluminum that do not rot with salt water like boats, wood if it is not paulownia yes, it is very thin, 0.8 so it does not alter the shape of eps, it has properties similar to glass fiber, it is not necessary to do hotcoat ... faster manufacturing, it is economical and I have unlimited acce...

like a knife

Today I made the test, I cut with the saw a sheet of 0.8mm thick, during the process I made a small cut in my hand, nothing serious, quiet, but it was a sign, a premonition, a warning What would happen to me if I entered with the aluminum paipo in the water. Directly I have discarded the idea I am n...

I live in the Basque Country is a zone of very temperate climate, winter is rare on days that we have 5 degrees and in summer on very few occasions we have more than 35 degrees obligatory to put a cap of gore tex on everything to keep the table inside the car aluminum: in this attached message a tab...

I have made tests sticking 2 aluminum plates with this glue, it has been terribly difficult to separate them with a special knife to open oysters. very happy with the result, I have not done the test eps / xps aluminum, it will be the next test. es he hecho pruebas pegando 2 chapas de aluminio con e...

I have been comparing the mechanical properties of fiberglass and aluminum. is very curious, have the same density 2700: same weight, elastic limit 90/120 in the references that I have said with temple h111 is very similar, there are other thermal treatments that combine those same references in muc...

I have seen surfboards alsurfboards and I thought it was a very interesting job, so I started thinking about that idea. I put a graphic with what I thought.  aluminum sheet up and down in 0.8 or 1mm thickness the marine reference is 5083, but I can not buy it in such fine thickness, this have 4% mag...

In my search for cheap materials and fast manufacturing I found PVC celuka foam. is a foamed pvc sheet which makes it lighter than pvc, do you know any of this? I think a thickness of 4mm would be fine do you know this material? what do you think? es en mi búsqueda de materiales baratos y de fabrica...

handplane 17x8

npi model 22x15. micropaipo? 2 hand plane? i dont now

npi is the abbreviation of an expression in Spanish "ni puta idea", or fucking idea. It is a retal of Paulawinia, it has been fun to do it, you have to try it in the water

good morning, I would like to take up this topic again How have the experiences gone over these years? have you used it a lot? I've been thinking about making a normal handplane, but I have worn out clavicles and seeing your idea made me want to become one myself too the measurements are in red, it ...

good morning I have a piece of paulownia 18 inches long 18mm fat, will it be too short? the waves here are very strong I have seen models many measures many shapes, crazy for something so small, with keels, concave planes .... I'm thinking of rockering the board with steam, so I practice for future ...

Modified Tubes Paipo: That has been the basis of my idea, the other photos I did not know.
  I saw the tubes on the sides and I thought a version of that would be for my paipo, it is the great thing of this community to be able to learn from others and be able to contribute

I think that with this idea and I have gone completely crazy

This would be an easy way to make the keels, 5mm aluminum sheet folded and screwed to the wood

pvc pipe? side 250mm ? ummm

I've been looking in the forum but I have not found too much information or debate about these keels just this interview https://mypaipoboards.org/interviews/JohnMellor/JohnMellor_2012-0715.shtml#Note_1 https://surfing-waves.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=9362&start=20 http://waveslide.blogs...

One of the problems has been the excess of keel in the front, causes the table to overdraw. after reducing the breakwater keel this effect has diminished, it is more controllable an effect that I have not been able to improve is the lack of grip of the edge of the board in the wave, part of the pres...

the idea is not to make a foil, I want to make a keel that stabilizes the paipo and does not jump so much.   yesterday with broken waves in a jump, falling into the water again I hit the table with the eggs, which hurt more horrible and could not stop, I was between 1.5 to 2m waves.   It was not a g...

I've done a lot of tests with different shapes, and you've turned out SheeeeIIIIItttttt, an elephant poop simply this idea is not good, it was a thought that drilled my head, if or if I had to make and try different versions. Today very very angry after so much effort, I came out of the water I took...
