Wooden Paddleboard Build

One of my retirement goals is to build a wooden paddle board. With the help of my friend, Josh of Ramsey Hardwood Floors in Bozeman, I’m building a board. Here’s the progression of the build:

Day 1

Day 2 Milling the strips. We took rough hemlock flooring from the Old Faithful recreation hall and stripped it 1/4″ x 3/4″ slats for the paddle board.

Ripping the original flooring
Planing the pieces to the final dimensions
