So sorry Mark for the delayed text - just wanted to say a massive thank you for all your support with Jack finalizing the surfboard for his major work. Cannot thank you enough. He loved working with you Kristy
He is a good person. He has some talent in this type of work.you should be proud of him
I just wanted to get back to you regarding the order sent to France.
After a hand injury forced a break (amazing what a planer can do to your hand... first time in 30 years of use!) I finally got around to opening things up and began shaping this week.
The cut lumber looks great, that'll be for the second board.
Anyway, I'm stoked to be advancing on this and thanks for working with me on billing and shipping.
Best Jeffrey from France
Thats great Jeffery, let me know if you need any more sent from Italy to France
Wow!!! Very nice balsa!!! I jus got it and opened it, all safe n sound. Thank you for working w me. Ill be spreading the news as well, for awhile. I love how the balsa was cut n harvested.
Daniel
Thats great Daniel, let me know if you need any more sent from Australia to USA. Show Frost Lumber in San Diego when you get a chance - they are keen to buy a container load.
Hi Mark,
Just wanted to share a quick update — I’ve completed my scratch build of the RES Eagle competition glider, and I’m stoked with the result! Every single part was cut, sanded, and painted by hand, and the take-off weight came in at just 436 grams.
Today was the maiden flight, marking the end of this 4-week project. I’ve attached a few photos so you can see what your balsa wood has turned into!
Thanks again for the great balsa — it made all the difference in this build.
Cheers,
Holger

6'11 Semi Gun Birthday Gift
I signed myself up to a masterclass with Mark to make myself a unique 50th birthday gift for myself. The results speak for themselves.
Initial engagement with Mark ensured we were on track to make the Balsa surfboard of my dreams. The next steps to progress the lengths of balsa to a surfboard shape were clear and precise thanks to Mark's guidance. Mark provides clear direction on what is required and is helpful when it comes to those tricky steps. The use of power tools and hand sanding was very therapeutic through the whole process.
Mark's experience shone through when we had some trouble with my special requests and finishes that were required. Mark was able to find solutions and ensured that the board finished in accordance with my initial design.
If you are on the fence about shaping your own Balsa board, I strongly suggest giving the process a go under Mark's guidance. You won't be sorry.
Thanks, Mark, for all your guidance and support in making my 50th birthday gift so unique.
A surf update to follow on how great it surfs.
