Once Laird comes by my place and show how to get waves here with a SUP.
As I've been influenced as much by his style than his board, I decided to design my board influenced by what did I feel that day and the 50+ years experience of my home beach break.

Then I make hot cut the EPS 30kg/m3 blocks with 3 nice stringers. I bring the EPS blank to the CNC and finally here she comes out.
Unless to say: I'm stocked of it frothing to have a go with it once lamed by myself.





Really great shape job.
Hope laminate sticks to channels.
Some guys use e glass to follow angles.
Really nice shape!
Looks, awesome mate. Enjoy!
Thank you again to have supported my hours of study on Shape3D.

Right on LeeD, at bottom I'm going to use two layers of 4oz in two passes with sanding between to get some nice edges as well as wrapping the glass around that slim nose. ![]()

Stunner Kami!! Was it cut on an Aku machine or a dsd? I had some issues with the last sup I had cut on an Aku machine not sure if it was operating error or the limitations of the disk.
SIC Kami ..looks like a down the line board with speed to burn ,,,with those channels i beat it spits out some serious roster tails on the turns
you gonna wax it or deck it ?after glassing
Kami! Great looking board. There is a lot going on above and below deck. Looks perfect for "my place" to. This will be a fun ride to follow.![]()

Stunner Kami!! Was it cut on an Aku machine or a dsd? I had some issues with the last sup I had cut on an Aku machine not sure if it was operating error or the limitations of the disk.
Was cut on 3 axes called KKL in Biarritz. It's an old machine with a single bit that do not allow to cut details as you can see the diameter on the channel cuts. The issue is that as the router is spinning in a single way, inducing an uneven depth of cutting ( a slight difference of deepness cut), higher on the left end sides (seen from tail or nose). But the positive thing is that the operator is very skill, he is the son the man who built the machine. Also, I'm designing the file using 3Dlayers and latest design features and the operator orders those ones in an accurate manner.
I think the trouble you had comes from the Shape3D version be used in GB more than the operating error or the limitation of the disk although that I do not know about if Aku would running well with Shape3DX. I had some file custom orders to cut there and the customers can't cut those files containing 3Dlayers because they run the CNC with V8 instead of the latest V9 I'm using. So I had to convert those files to V8 consequently erasing the 3Dlayers and simplifying the file
it's shame that the machine blows your dream![]()
Tardy, "my place" needs to get early take off , fast and high on the wall to go though sections.
I'm going old way: wax it![]()
FRP, thanks Bob, i will keep you update!
When can I order mine?![]()
Long way to get mine...so I better not take any other order than mine![]()
First of all is to get a EPS blank with stringers. I was lucky to have a friend who is doing that

Wow Kami
looks Ace, high speed line special.
Would have been cool to see Laird show up and share something new at a spot you know well.
'Blame Laird'
cheers
