Grain Surfboard Construction Part 11

Big sanding day today! Sanded the deck a little more to smooth it all out, then planned and sanded the rails to start the softening of the mid-nose rails. Also, I started the sanding on the bottom.

Me, the board, and a saw-dust covered garage:

New tool for cutting the rail outline:

I dropped it while putting it up and the one side exploded... :(
