How to Make a Snowboard - Part 2


How to Make a Snowboard - Part 2
This is part 2 in our series showing how to make a snowboard from start to finish.

So, we have printed and created our base and topsheet, and cured them, in Part 1, and now we are ready to cut our bases in order to lay them up with rails.

Step 3: Cutting Base
Here you can see the cured base is layed up on the shape of the board. This shape matches the mold template outline.

The base + jig/guide are placed in a cutting bay, and secured in place. We use a router to cut the shape.
Before commencing cutting this, we would do well to remember to have a sip of Dr Pepper.



Here we can see we have nearly finished.
