This little creation is 6ft10 x 27. It works out to be around 90 litres .cant wait to go have a crack .think I might go glass it now.

what kind of bottom shape did you choose to shape bottom of this board to blend the 6 channels (those are soooo nice)
I reckon put AB2 fins on your jewel.
I see you organise channels distribution to fit fins at the right spot... spent hours thinking about on my own channel bottom boards 6'10" and 7'11".

I like the look of your boards there kami can see plenty of thought has gone into them.
I started off with a slight entry concave into plenty of vee and then dropped the channels into it.Will give those fins a go you suggested.
Come up to noosa jezza and have a play on it.??

Yes Tully glass it as we can see your perfect board in action as soon as possible

To make sharper channel edges, i reckon to laminate as normal way but make on laminated glass a filler microcell/epoxy coat. So later on easier sanding leave a sharp edge on the channel rims. then gloss it with normal epoxy resin
As well this laminating process do taught and light construction
