board building dreams

Post by doughboyshredder »

Had a bad dream last night.

First board came out of the press and after I cut it out I tried to flex it and it was as soft as a spaghetti noodle. I had layed the base on upside down and none of the epoxy kicked. It all fell apart.
Second board came out of the press and felt like a super stiff sponge. I had forgotten to profile the core so it was thick throughout the whole thing and the epoxy didn't kick right.

I was so bummed. Then I woke up and was relieved to find out it was all just a bad dream.

Yeah bit you really did have a board that didn't kick once right? Nightmare.
