first board finally!
Posted: Wed Oct 07, 2009 11:23 am
160cm twin
full wood core
22oz triax
p-tex sidewalls
4000 grade base
VDS
vacuum pressed @-23in. hg for 24 hours
Problems:
one insert mis-aligned during layup
masking tape on base bad idea, really hard to get off
topsheet not perfect, need to work on that
do not have the correct setup to chamfer sidewalls yet, so they are kind of half done
Overall happy with the board, homemade vacuum press worked great, hopefully the first of many. Thanks to everyone on this site for providing helpful information
any tips/constructive critisism would be appreciated
