The construction process continues.
With the top of the board now laminated, it's time to fair in the overlap on the bottom of the board and put all the inserts in the board. Fin Box, Leash Plug, Handle and Vent Screw all get inserted using the same method.

Jimmy Lewis.....so many years of experience and wisdom are manifest here in these vids.
But there is only one Jimmy Lewis and there are lots of Jimmy Lewis boards being offered for sale.
This is a "special video".......obviously he has not made all the Jimmy Lewis boards that are for sale.
Am wondering how his personal wisdom and skills translates into a higher volume board manufactoring process so the average punter gets a quality board?
This isn't really a serious question......just idle curiosity

Duplicate in factory is the only way to make pay back all the experience and shaping development made by an artist as Jimmy Lewis in his workshop. As well as to get a living from his passion....
As an elder, thank Jimmy to pass down few building trick to younger too. That's great.
