Well, I just finished another board for myself but this time I made a few mistakes argh!
I am getting very close to perfecting the gloss. I didn't bother rounding off the rails or sanding down to the rail material... you'll see why further down.

Jay will love this one. I slipped off the guide while trying to work at night and sunk my router bit right into the rail of the board. F@#$ I had some choice words for that one. Lesson learned. Again. #$%^@. I can fix it when I get more time... will ride it first and then decide.

I also tried a lighter bottom layup and this board has a lot of flex. Seems to work well.
