Laminating the Bottom Deck of the 4'10" V2

At the start of this Memorial Day Weekend, I got started on the last part of finishing the new 4'10".  First I set the finboxes in and then I got the bottom deck lamination on.  Each 10.75" box took about 2.5 ounces of epoxy.  And after that the bottom lamination took 4x 4.5 ounce cups (but some of that got soaked up into the roller pad and half of the last cupful didn't go on the board - so call it a little over 12 ounces of epoxy.  The lamination was a nose to tail layer of 4.8 ounce carbon fiber and a cover sheet of 6 ounce warp fiberglass.

It went on without drama (as it should).

Tomorrow morning (Sunday) I'll grind down the laps and get the top lamination on - another 4.8 ounce layer of carbon fiber, a layer of 6 ounce across the contact area and a second cover layer to wrap the rails.  If all goes well, I may even try to grind the top deck laps and get one of the fill coats on.  That'll leave the other fill coat for Monday morning, cutting out the vent and leash plug holes, getting those plugs installed and then sanding the board.

And then there is the logo and gloss coat (clear coat acrylic) applications.  Honestly this board will likely be ready to ride by next weekend.
