6:22 Poor kitchen table. What did it ever do to you!?!?
Well I was hoping the grip tape might help get the glitter glue and marker off... 😉
It's ok, she can make another one.
My table works for me -not the other way around!
Come on give her some respect
It's a family home, not a show home.
You are the coolest Mom ever! Great project and video as always!
I wish that were actually true. Ha! Thanks!!
+3x3Custom - Tamar not to rain on you para is but If It hasn't broke yet then it will the reason a pro board stays together cause it's thin sheets pressed together with thousand of pounds of force and plywood is not the best Canadian maple is the best but carbon fiber is the best for a board oh and cheap things are even worse I have had those bearing melt in my wheel so this is my rant I'm so sorry stuf like this can get me mad because I've seen cheap boards hospitalize people
luke downhill All boards are plywood.
luke downhill did you not hear the part where she says it's for her 6 year old daughter? It's just a simple board for her daughter to play around on. I'm sure if it was for a full sized serious skater it wouldn't work but for it's intended purpose it's perfect.
lmao that grammar tho
This might be an odd compliment, but I LOVE how you open videos with "I made a longboard" or box, or guitar. I have no idea why but I laugh every time.
Hahaa! My kids said that that’s what I say when they come home from school after I finish a project. So it’s just me being me. 🤷🏻♀️
Mom's are great...wood working moms are something different,very harf working lady. God bless the family
Ha! Thanks.
"Daddy's home! Daaaaaaaad!!!!"
I love how excited your kids were when your husband arrived.
Ha! They do that everyday.
And you’re the one who makes them cool stuff...go figure...
@@CrunchyNut7 she also makes them do their homework and clean their rooms...lol
What a supportive mother!
☺️☺️
I love that you do stuff for your kids. I know you only do wood working when they're in school or asleep and I see why. They'll keep you running. Adorable when she yelled, "I'm doing it!" Happy holidays.
😂😂😂 yeah. Hard to focus when they’re around. Can only do small projects with them
Looks great the clear grip was a nice touch. For a longboard you want to use layered sheets rather than strips with the grain from each running perpendicular to each other to help with tensile strength. My board is 7/8" thick and I've found Canadian Maple to be the best. Hope this helps
Her vertically laminated method is a tried and true method to make surfboards, snowboards, skis, and longboards. Her medium were wood scraps, so v-lam is perfect for a one of a kind project.
I was making and selling longboards built exactly this way back in 2007... And I still own and ride some of those boards to this day. Great video as always!
Thanks! It’s still in great shape!
The benefits of having a mom like you 😭💗 I've been wanting a longboard for ever 😔😔
Welcome to the club; no one goes straight with a jigsaw. Dull blades were my biggest problem, so toss them when they start acting up. Also, you looked to be pushing to the right to stay on the line. That bows the blade and angles the cut. Only push forward and steer the saw body along the line instead. Go slow; if you feel like you are pushing hard, slow a little. Let it cut.
Love your channel, your work, and your spirit. I've gone back and watched them all. Keep them coming.
Thanks so much for the tips! I want to throw it at the wall sometimes.... I think I’m trying to move way too fast.... it’s just too slow for me. That’s why I like table saws! Ha! And thanks so much for the feedback!
Really cool project, I love the colour of the woods! Suggestion for a next one: You could try to make a slightly concave one by gluing multiple layers of thin wood together into a "template" that you can make from e.g. those foam insulation sheets. That also lets you adjust the amount of flex you'll get. Just make sure you have enough clamps :)
This popped up for me because I just got into longboarding, and the fact that you didn’t know anything about long boarding before this surprised me because you’re so well-researched!
I own a couple longboards and skateboards. I’m not a complete novice. Just a novice at making one.
3x3Custom - Tamar Ah I misunderstood. I’m dumb. Still a dope ass board!
Here a tips on how to get a seamless cut when cutting the sandpaper edges. Just hold your breath and cut it.
Love your videos. Thank you.
dang what a beast mom
I think this is a compliment. So... thanks🤷🏻♀️
Yes it is!
Yeah she’s pre badass
😂
When I was a kid, back in 1977, my brother and I made long boards before they were cool. We took 6 ft 2x4's and threw trucks on them.
Yeah I know, but hey, we were kids and it worked..now I have a professionally built long board....nice work by the way, looks great.
That’s an awesome story. Thanks!
I’ve been binge watching your wood working videos and it made me think, ‘how cool would it be to build a longboard?!’…so I searched it up and of course there you are in the top results! Never cease to amaze, you are such an inspiration for me 💜
Haha nice
I truly appreciate your efforts and the fact that you make the templates available to everyone. Thank you.
Awesome! Glad you like it!
It's a classic old school wood longboard, it has a very beautiful style.
Thanks so much! I had some guy on here yesterday telling me I’m a moron for making a wood board..... not for everyone, but i like it!
You are going to be voted Coolest Mother Ever. Congratulations on your first longboard.
Haha! Saving that for when my kids are teens
Sometimes it is nice to let ppl know about the whole development, never easy :)
Yup!
Awesome! Great job! Kick ass boots too!
Thanks so much! I feel like a bad ass when I wear them. Ha.
Nice! I dig the clear grip tape. Didn’t know that was a thing. What a great project!
Thanks! I’ve also seen some ppl put finely crushed glass mixed into their last coat of poly. But this seemed easier. Ha.
@@3x3CustomTamar dunno if they have made improvements with the "clear" grip tape but the stuff we had in the mid to late 80's was crat wore out in weeks the fine ground glass or crushed walnut shells would be far superior.
Spam Musubi it’s been holding up for a couple years now
So cool. Moms in general do a lot more than they get credit for, but to make toys for your kids too? Unprecedented. Great job. Your kids will never forget your hard work.
Thanks ☺️
Omg I love this! My 20 year old daughter would love if I made her one. She loves long boards & penny boards. Thanks for the idea.😉👍
Awesome! Would love to see it when you make it!
Very rad! Best part of the video is the beginning...someone throwing snowballs at you lol! :)
That would be my 9 year old son.... ha!
Great build - you are really on a roll with creative and great-looking builds!
Thanks so much! Coming from you that means a lot!
Nice build and Adorable daughter. "I'm doing it!" Had my heart melting. Thank you for sharing.
Ha! Thanks! Made it all worth it ☺️
@@3x3CustomTamar for me too. :-) subbed also.
Great project! Tip for the next one. Work the razor blade from the top, versus coming from underneath like you did. You’ll find that perfect angle easily and it will zip right down the board with a nice clean cut.
Thanks! Good to know
So cool, the "I'm doing it! I'm doing it!" was great.
She’s so funny. Now she has to actually learn how to do it. Thanks!
Whaaaaaaat,,,,, no rolling pin! Even I have a rolling pin, that I ONLY use for making pepperoni rolls haha!! I know what your next project can be...🤔😉. You did a GREAT job on the Long Board, my friend. And made the kids very happy!!! VERY NICE!!! Take care, Jay.
Thanks jay! Yeah...... I used to have one. I have no idea what happened to it. Ha.
@@3x3CustomTamar perhaps you cut it half and bored it out because the kids needed pencil holders for their desks? 😆
Such a cool project! I recently discovered a better way to do shapes like this then with the jig saw.
I like to cut a shape out of plywood, clean it up, make sure it works for what I want, then tape it to my hardwood blank, and use a router with a bushing to cut out my final piece.
All in all it takes about as much time, I've got a reusable plywood jig, and the finally product doesn't have any chipout or jigsaw marks
Great project! The washers that go on the outside of the bearings are just washers. The thick cylinders that you can put between the bearings are called speed washers I think. Totally cool project. Yay!
Thanks for clarifying. I knew there was something called a speed washer.... and thanks!
Just some advice, put a spacer in between the bearings and the wheel will spin better with less effort. Otherwise 👌🔥🔥
Wow está padrisima !!!!!! Me encantan tus proyectos y como los combinas con tu familia 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Nice video, I made a longboard a year ago for my daughter, I had a lot of fun doing it.
Thanks! It was a really fun project!
Beautifully done ! I'm sure your daughter loves it.😊Thank you.
Thanks! She was so happy
This is really cool. I love the look of the board and the shape is awesome. thanks for sharing!
Thanks!
A longboard is now officially on my list of things to make. Just found and subbed to your channel. So many inspiring projects! Can’t wait to catch up on all of them.
Awesome! Thanks! More longboards are on my list! Ha!
When my son got into skate boards I decided to make my own skate board from scrap 3/4" plywood and made a intermediate length board. Found a old yard sale skate board and used the trucks from it and bought new bearings and wheels. It was a fun project and we had much fun skating along in a large parking lot when no one was around. I only wish there was an easier way to stop the thing other than turning away (sometimes there isn't a way to turn around and we just run off the road into the grass and bail out! LOL As for design, I would test the wood out by placing blocks under it and bouncing my / your weight on it to see if it is strong enough. My design flexes but will not break with my 190 lbs of weight. If it was a true long board it may not be strong enough. Oh and we ended up getting the skate board pocket tool so that adjustments were easily made to wheels.
Sounds like a fun project. I totally want to make more
Eu super amei o vídeo, meu sonho é ter um longboard, pena que aqui no Brasil costuma ser bem caro, parabéns, ótimo vídeo
that was amazing! Idk anything about woodwork yet but so want to make my own!
Plus, you explained about the hardware way better than all the guy videos I've seen on gripping and maintenance, so thanks for that 💜
Awesome! Thanks for the feeedback! I hope you build one soon!
This was fun to watch. Really like that she is a humble person!
Glad you liked it ☺️
Turned out really well, I like the how the deck fades from light to dark!
Thanks! I was hoping someone would realize that! Ha!
3x3Custom - Tamar it's the little things :)
YOU ARE BADASS i'm a boarder my self and i'd wish my mom made me one either if i were 6 or if i were older it looks great and ply or hardwood in my opinion its up to the rider because one likes a stiff board and the other likes more flex in their board and i love that you used clear griptape it realy adds character to the board.
Thanks so much!
Great project! Cauls are very useful. There is more strength if they are up on their edge. Some people will plane or sand a very slight convex bow on the edge, so when they clamp them they go flat and put more pressure in the middle.
I have to get better at planning my glue ups before pouring the glue....
Super cool use for scraps. Anytime I have to glue up laminates I vacuum seal them instead of clamping them. Try it out
Thanks. Cool
Great look! I love it
Thanks so much! I’m having fun on it. Ha.
Don't worry you did a bomb job i make my own longboards for longboard racing i likw my boards to be a certain way with my riding style. You sealed it pretty well. Good job 👏
Thanks!
Awesome! Turned out great! I've never been a fan of the clear grip tape because it isn't really that clear. I've started mixing an anti-skid paint additive (I use Tread Tex or you could even just use sand) with the varnish, and it makes for a super grippy, and way more clear top to your skateboard. Maybe something to try for the next one!
Thanks! I read somewhere that ppl used super fine crushed glass as well. This just seemed easier. If I make another one. I’d try something like that
One thing that improved my jigsaw experience was changing the blade for a better quality one. Its a cheap jigsaw but it got much much better with a quality blade. Loved this proyect ive wanted to make my own longboard for a long time! it came out amazing
Thanks so much! I’ll look into the blades.
You’re so cool I love how it turned out your daughter looks psyched lollll
Haha thanks! she loved it
It became great, madam. And I learnt one little thing: I just use one washer, the inside one, therefore, now, I'm going to buy more washers to put 2 washers in each wheel.
Danke for the great video!
LOVING this project! The wood looks gorgeous with those pink wheels! Good work, mama!
Thanks so much Charlotte! My littlest requested one too... guess I’ll be making another one!
Haha! I guess now you know what works and what doesn't work!
Didn’t think you could build a decent board but after watching and and seeing that it wasn’t going to be bombing hills with a 200 lb rider I think you did a terrific job and the finished product looks great 👍🏽
Finally! Thanks! This is a fun project for kids. Not pros!
3x3Custom - Tamar Subbed and about to check out some of your other projects
Thanks for the response, didn’t expect one
2dthoughts ha! Enjoy the rest!
I was just searching for videos last night on making a longboard for my daughter. When I saw this I assumed it was a video from the past and showing up because of that. Anyway - great timing! Loved the video.
That’s so funny! Thanks!!
inspirational! Thanks!!
You are awesome. Hope your kids are happy!
Thanks! They are!
Great job! Thank you.
Thanks! 🤘
Thicknesses can vary greatly in longboards depending on their intended use. I have some as thin as 1/4"(street cruiser), and others as thick as 1" (down hill deck). You did a great job on the thickness, and the board as a whole!
Protip with grip tape. You can use a file to clean the edges of the grip tape (just not one that you like) after cutting.
Thanks! And thanks for the tip
I like the lil doves tail u put into ur stencil ,good work. I find when gripping boards if u just get a file u can actually just file the griptape down to the plastic and the cut it or just completely file it off i see kids now scoring then cutting the grip but if u just completely file it off it gets a really nice finish that actually adheres to the board better. It does take a bit of elbow grease to do but its just how we and i used to always do it .
Thanks! I’ll have to try that next time
Great video. Thank you from France for the template ❤🇨🇵❤
That’s a fun project !!! Love from Greece!!!
Thank you! It’s so fun to ride too!
I used to be pretty into longboarding, like downhill racing, parking garage & "cross-country" (cross-campus) outlaw racing etc. And about 2-3 years ago I made my first longboard which is eerily similar to this one! After getting tired of telling my daughter to stop knocking around my old (expensive) one collecting dust, we decided on a type of "sea-glass teal" (transparent) with nearly identical "spar-var" process and keeping with the surfboard feel we were going for, I did it all "free-hand" (and eye- ball) from a dresser/chest side-panel heirloom that I wanted to keep in the family...I'd like to share/post if you're interested... it was just so ironically similar I had to comment:)
Ha! I'd love to see a pic
How cool! Fun project.
Thanks!
That’s a fun project. I’ll bet my daughter would love if I built this.
It really was! And an easy one to get the kids involved in
this made me so happy to watch, as a long boarder and skateboarder myself i remember making a longboard with my dad a few years back :) also just to let you know, not all longboard trucks are meant to be in reverse, the ones you used are but some are not :)
Awesome project!
I used your template and I'm in the beginning stages of making one of these for my 12-year old daughter who loves to skateboard. Keep making the amazing videos! Thank you!!!!
That’s so awesome to hear! I hope she likes it!
Longboarding is the chad sport
Great job. I love the look of the board. My nephew is 2 but may have to make one for him in the future. I made his first bike. I’ll have to make his first board. I saved this video.
A bike?! That’s awesome! You def need to make him his first board. Coolest uncle ever.
AWESOME!!! Making one!
Yes!!!
You are one of the coolest people I've seen on the Internet👏👏👏
Haha! I’ll remember that when my kids are teenagers and they tell me otherwise
Well job ! Really happy to see your work
Thank you so much!
I started long boarding when I was three sets great start and if you really trying to get into it sector nine lanyard and Benton is a great longboard brand
I like my Arbor board ☺️
Awesome build! Super cool mom!
Thanks! 🤘
This was a really great video! Thanks!!!
Thanks!
you're probably the coolest mom in the world
I’m going to tell my kids you said that
Looks really nice, great build!
Thank you! Cheers!
3X3Custom -cool channel! I wish I had more time for things like this!
Thanks! Yeah. It’s a lot of fun. But time consuming.
Nice Job as Usual. !!!! Hope your daughter loves it.
Thanks! She does! So I’m happy.
What a fun spirit oyu bring to oyur work. Motivational.
Thanks,
Scott
Nice Woodworks
Thanks so much Scott!
What a great build. . Its a lovely board. Fantastic skills
Thanks! This was a fun one
Your best video yet. It felt much more personal
Thanks mike! Appreciate the feedback!
Youve done an amazing job!! And also thank you so much for including all your templates on your website. I'll be making this one and probably the explorer as well
Glad you like appreciate it! Thanks!
Looks great Tamar! I built a solid wooden cruiser and did a full build video too! Keep it up!
Thanks so much!
Very inspiring! Definitely going to make one. Thankyou for the great video!
Awesome! Thanks!
Stunning bit of wood, and a gorgeous shape too. Top work
Thanks so much!
Haha so cool!!! Mom of the year
I’m telling my kids you said that!
Really a nice project - i love the wood you were using!
if you are interested in tipps from my side (i've built a lots of these with kids....) make the board even thinner (just about 6 to 8 mm) and use some Bi- or Triaxial Fibreglass (about 80 to 120g/m2) on the underside of the board to strengthen it - like this the board will be much more lightweight and therefore better to ride!
One more important point: use spacers inbetween the bearings - i know, the shops do not sell them often but it really makes a difference in how tight you can mount the wheels whitout crashing the bearings - so it goes for a much smoother ride afterwards whitout to loose, whobbly wheels!
Thanks for the tips!
love the way you do and learn tamar.......thanks !!
Thanks!
That is a beautiful board!
Thanks!
You’re awesome! And good lookin..great job!
What a fun project!
Thanks!
I love your stuff. So creative. Really nice videos too. Inspiring. Can't wait to get my workshop up and running!
Awesome! Thank you!
That's so much cooler than buying one! I love it!
Ha! My daughter thinks so ☺️. Thanks!
What an awesome project. Looks beautiful. ✌️
Thanks!
Another great video - Thank you.
Thanks so much! I really do appreciate the feedback!
I love the kitchen table / work bench.
Ha. I debate building a nice one. But I’ll prob just use it as a bench...
Add a vice to that kitchen table and you might be on to something. @@3x3CustomTamar
Super cool and fun video, one tip is a buy a spacer. The size is 8 mm x 10 mm they go in between the bearings it’s the longboard can ride smoother. One of the thing that can happen if you don’t put them is that if the wheel takes a big hit the wheel and the bearing can pop off. They make your bearing last longer to. Sorry about the bad structured comment i speak spanish, but hope it helps.
Your daughter will never forget this. I'm really enjoying catching up on this channel.
I hope so! Thanks!
