How to make a solid wood shortboard/cruiser longboard. Its made from solid maple and cherry. I used some recycled skateboard wood as inlays on the nose and tail. The final dimensions of the board are 7.5 inches (193mm) wide by 24 inches (607mm) long and 1/2 inch thick.

Lean your board vertically against something for it to dry. You wont get nearly as much pesky wood beads. I think it also makes the bond stronger. But I could be wrong. Regardless, your way worked just as fine.
Love your work looks so elegant and done with class
Can you make it out of one single board
Great job man.
Beautifully designed!! Excellent craftsmanship!!!
This time I’ll use woodprix instructions to make it myself 🙂
Awesome video, would love to see a long board being made. Do you make any with curves?
How would you do if you had to bend the tail and the nose ? (and the deck ?) Cut through the wood and carve it ?
You should show us how it works! Great looking board I love the inlays, very cool!
Nice one! Have to point out that when gluing-up you should spread the glue and alternate the clamps for a tighter bond. Finished product looks great!
Great to see that… I made it too. Using woodprix handbooks 🙂
Just google WoodPrix 😉 I made my own thanks to WoodPrix instructions 🙂
I like this old school board. Very good job. What is the width of the truck ?

Nice work man!
After watching your video, I also want to make a skateboard now!
That looks pretty sweet. I want to do one where I steam bend wood boards and make a pattern like you did so I could have that tail bend.
what is the thickness of your board?
really nice deck
