Hey,
When do you need it? just a pretty drawing or something practical?
I can draw up one tomorrow.

Hey Bradn,

Thanks for your reply.

Actually, I need for Carafino boards. Practical or pretty is welcome. No problem.

I will use the draw for cmc shaping.

Thanks,

it is cool that people are offering you some drawings ... With the time I have into mine 12months so far from start to today. Image

just to get the molds right and everything figured out... It would cost a lot of money for them..

at first I was thinking about going to the local highschool and talking to a tech teacher and see if one of the students needed a project...

and if I didn't have some good friends I would be still in the drawing stage


not trying to be a dick , just saying
I wish there was a old source for the 3d cad drawing also in the beginning.
Oh I was screwed by carifino too
good luck

it's a real pain in the butt to make that diamond shape on the end of the mast. the caraffino board diamond is not made precisely. It can be done, with many lay ups and sanding but first make sure the bolt holes are straight/aligned. It can be done though. That Australian 'seabreeze' website tells most of what you need to know

Thanks @bradn. I look forward for the other draws. It will be really useful for everybody. I will write your name on foil.

@arcsrule I see that seabreeze and aluminum staff sound logical at least for my boards. I will cover it with eloxiert. So, I need that draws for CNC cut and may be I do a prototype with OAK at the beginning.

@tkettlepoint I know that mold is money. But, I don't need to make it with high quality now. I just need something to sell them with low cost.

Thanks for all information. I have a question;

What kind of aluminum and which size should I use for it? Should it be filled inside(Which material)? I guess empty one makes vibration??

There is a lot of info online for the foils if you search for it.

Just wondering how much mould back ground do you have and how much carbon / epoxy back ground

what epoxy are you going to use? what layup on the carbon?

just putting bradn name on for something you are sell? the least you can do is send him a free foil with a life long wing replacement / upgrade as you go. Which I am doing for my 2 friends that helped me out.

just wondering
