I have posted the proof elsewhere on this site. If you want the best bond it is an absolute MUST that you flame treat before layup. I don't feel like searching for it, but the report I posted unequivocally proved that relying on factory flame treating was the worst method. The molecular change that ...

And the grinder is correct, he could really mess up a stone with a non-true base, and the way those things cost gridners are rarely ready to take a risk. He may be correct, but also clueless, maybe? Stone grinders should only be used for the last few passes to add structure to the base. I can't ima...

I hear ya. I know short boards can be fun. It's just not my thing. I did ride a 146 on a pow day once and I had a good time, but I have a lot more fun going fast. no boarding is a bit different. I don't think I would want to be going 50mph without binders. Anyway, your boards are beautiful, and it's...

Quickest part of the layup. Using a flat edged spreader, set the edge up against the edge, angle the spreader at about 45 degrees, let her rip leaving a bead along the edges. Move forward with layup as usual. leaving the bead along the edges (a very small bead) is more than adequate. The squeeze out...

Thanks! I think you're totally right on the thickness. For some reason I'm having a hard time letting it sink in that I need to go thinner. Twizz said it too, I just need to build and see what I get. I'll be finishing the profiler today, so here goes nothing... 10.5 is massively thinner than 11.5 a...

I think the SSR is wired properly, he just has it labeled a bit oddly. IN is the low volt control side. Out is the power circuit. If you look closely the neutral runs through the contactor to the blanket and the hot goes through the contactor, the ssr, the fuse, and to the blanket. I think the conta...
