Fix a Very Broken Surf Board

Step 19 Finish the Board

I oven cured the glass layup in a hurry. The epoxy pot still had some flow to it when the board came out. It was too thick to use the paintbrush, so I cut a squeegee from a sheet of plastic. I squeegeed the epoxy all over the newly sanded glass and put it back in the oven. Notice the "return address" contact info on the board. After all this work I don't want to lose the board.

It's done! Go surfing!

What if you want it perfect? Then you'll sand it again and epoxy it again and repeat and repeat until a car falls from the sky and crushes you. Everyone will say what a tragedy it was that you wasted your life turning perfectly good epoxy into noxious dust over and over again beyond all reason.

I was just curious if you think you could have gained anything by adding a couple pencil rods through the core at the break? Like aluminum or something. I don't think it would add too much weight...but not sure about balance/tilt.
What do you think?
