- Can you 3D print a surfboard at home? Well I try it and I came up with something that resembles a surfboard! This project took me the better part of a year, I hope you enjoy this video. I'll have more videos on this surfboard later in the year hopefully.
I still need to fiberglass the surfboard and test ride it.
Also I posted an in depth write up on Instructables, if you like it, vote for me in the 3D contest:

I will vote for you 👍🧀🦠🦖🥚🥜🦆
👏👏 You've got my vote
This is not the first time I notice how much patience you have.) Thank you for sharing your experience, greetings from Russia.
Got my first 3d printed board last year from Wyve. Excellent board.
This is SO beautifully thought out and presented! I REALLY appreciate how you actually show the problems and issues as well as your tests (eg the different glues) instead of just showing how it all (apparently) went brilliantly and fantastically well the first time you tried it. Earned a subscribe!
Great video! Looking forward to see you test drive it.
Ha, saw your post on istructables first and hoped for a video in the near future. And there it is! It's a red beauty! Keep it going Andrew, really enjoyed all your videos!
Subscribed. Great job appreciate the time you spent making this
this things looks awesome!
A prancha ficou linda!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🌊🌊
Thanks for sharing Andrew
You are a wizard mate. This is cool
I'm waiting anxiously for the next video!!!
Outstanding!!!
sweet, love you videos, keep up the good work!
Thanks, appreciated!
Cool video! bro!
This board looks awesome!
Next time you glass a 3d printed board or are bonding plastics with epoxy, sand (80-100grit) the plastic and then flame treat it before glassing. It will help everything bond together way better, and it won't delam as easy. Treating the plastic first makes a massive difference in how well the plastic bonds to the figerglass with the epoxy. I use to build snowboards all the time and getting the plastics to bond well and not delam you needed to treat it first. I wish the site I learned to make snowboards was around still, so I could share it. It had great comparisons of how big of a difference it made. Also never touch the plastic with out clean gloves after treating it, the oils from you hands can't prevent a soild bond. Plastic can be way picker then eps with oils.
When we are allowed back to the beaches I would love to check out this board out!
Flame treat it? .75 mm walls seem like they'd warp in a crack addicts heartbeat. What's the trick?
@@iandrake4683 thinnest I've done is 1.25mm I believe. The trick is after you sand you pass a small torch over it very quickly in light passes. You want to do enough that is just melts the little hairs slightly that the sanding makes. It takes a little practice to get the amount right. But even if you don't get it perfect it makes a big difference. If things start warping you have the heat on too long. The tests I did with top sheet material, if I just epoxied it, it would easily peel off. Slight sanding was harder to peel off. Sanding with flame treating was really hard to peel off and would sometimes take fibreglass with it.
@@WaveWasters thanks for the explanation. I'm making an efoil board and I'm printing the foils, fuselage, and mast with plans to fiberglass them after. I'll print some tests and give it a try!
@@iandrake4683 that sounds pretty cool! If you do some searching on the ski builders forum you can probably find a better explanation of the process. Sidewalls I use to flame treat and the attached wood core wouldn't get burnt, quick light passes to start. If you have some failed test prints Id practice on them with some epoxy and wood or fabric and see how much force it takes to peel it off.
@@WaveWasters Thanks for the heads up on this. I found a few videos about flame treatment and will give it a try this weekend on some failed prints.
If anyone is interested here's a good vid about it: czcams.com/video/OL0ltMqgxT4/video.html
Hey Andrew! Dunno if anybody else has suggested this yet but there's an infill type called "Gyroid" which doesn't create separate air cavities in the interior of the print. You can use this to mitigate the concerns you had at 5:35
Next step would be for you to make your filaments from recycle plastic. That would make it a very environment friendly board. Have you heard of the Precious Plastic movement? Check it out. Cheers from Portugal. Stay safe!
Im late to the party, but this is really ambitious and impressive. 👏👏👏👏👏 well done
Your videos are great! Hi from Peru
Hey from Canada!
This is great! I’m moving to Hawaii next month and I was planning on printing a board too! How much rolls of filament were used? Minus all the inevitable fails
Thanks!
I’d love to build a belt printer wide enough to do this in one piece, I’d be able to build a surfboard with a single cad file, 1, 4 day print and 2 hours of glassing.
U rock
You might aswell not model the rocker and just let it warp
Can you try make a fully 3D printed handplane
your content is pretty awesome. :)
I think the small gaps between prints would help with the epoxy and fiberglass sticking a little better than you think it's going to also if you did any sanding prior to glassing those small cuts and scrapes help too
It looks awesome, ive research about a couple of guys that printed one with algae and recycled bottles. Im about to start shaping my first board, and watching your videos have been super helpful. Please upload a video testing it and telling us how it works! Cheers form Peru, we are not allowed to surf yet because of the quarentine, I hope that you can surf for all of us.
Did you try it in the sea ?
Looks great and love watching ur contentL Just one thing. Why not sand the board just a little for better adhesion when laminating the board? Cheers
can you please go over how you sliced it in mesh mixer
@9:22 How does the venting system work without a valve? Do you just leave out the rubber seal until you put the board in the water?
Hi man! I would like to make a 3d printed paddle sup board. Have you got a stl file?
Hey Andrew have you info on 3D printing using foam...theres some companies doing this..might be able to make 3d printed soft top...
Nice video! Maybe you could try to improve the bonding between the fiberglass and the board by sanding it before glassing with rough sandpaper (60 or 80 grit) just to scratch it without making it weaker. I never worked with 3d print so i don't know if the problem is only mechanical bonding or also chemical. Another step you could try is to apply a "paste" made with epoxy and Qcell, wait for that to dry and smooth that out like is used for EPS boards, this way the glass would bond for sure. I know this last suggestion would probably deviate too much from the original project but is something you can do in case the board delaminates completely. Keep it up!
The paste epoxy and Qcell is a great idea, did it before for sealing a blank. Thanks for the suggestions!
Cool video! Is it surfable? And what do you do with the graveyard of PLA?
where can we find other STL models of surfboard ?
That’s awesome, I’m 3D printing a hydrofoil surfboard, how many tubes of weldon 16 did you go through for that project?
I’ve just bought a 3D printer to go into that process. Howesome. I’ll go into hexagonal open cells on the top/bottom.
Nice video keep it up can you please tell me what type of wood you used for the chambered wooden surfboard and if it was michened timber or not thanks. Keep up the good work 👍🧀
I used SPF, spruce, pine or fir. It was wood from the build supply store, it was what I could get locally. I'd recommend balsa or paulownia wood if you have access to it. Thanks!
Andrew W thanks for the information
U rock
How many rolls of filament consumed for the whole board minus the failed prints?
Hi Andrew w do you know some way to reply one board?
Its a slingshot dwarf 3,6
Some way to reply in a 3D printer?
Thanks in advance
How much money worth of filament is that?
Why not fill each cell with filler foam?
What if you print all the parts designed where you can use spray foam in it and then fiber glass it.
i hope it doesnt warp under exposure to sunlight.
how much time does it take to print an entire surf board ?
wondering if someone printed a _sit on top_ kayak.
Anyway well done Indeed!
have you tried it in the water?
Fuck Coronavirus ;-D - I want to see this on the water.
Can you share 3d models?
Yes check back in a few days and I will have them posted with a link in the description.
@@AndrewWorkshop Ok, thanks, waiting for it
@@prodocik Posted this morning, it's in the description.
You maybe the reincarnation of Leonardo Da Vinci
one tipp about toxicity
SMELL is not always an indicator of higher toxicity. some resins for example smell less but are more toxic than the smelly ones.
probably it's the same for glue.
SO.. what happened then?
Something is seriously wrong with your printer settings! I have the same printer and it produces perfect prints! Yours looks stringy and a lot of extra blobs. Looks like you are over-extruding??
Totally NO SENSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
