Synopsis
Make a statement by building a skateboard from scratch. When you make your own skateboard, you can create a singular deck that is perfectly tailored to your physical specs, your skill level, and, most important, to your unique, personal style. With the revised and expanded edition of The Handmade Skateboard at your fingertips, you will quickly be on your way to building a custom skateboard from scratch-and making a statement about yourself. Whether you're an accomplished woodworker or an enthusiastic beginner, the detailed step-by-step photos and instructions will guide you through five projects, starting with a simple hackboard built in a few hours to a custom street deck vacuum-pressed from maple veneers. A design guide covers sizing and shaping your deck and choosing the right trucks and hardware; the section on decorating your finished board, along with the gallery and maker profiles, will inspire the perfect finishing touches. Book jacket., With over 10K sold, the first edition of The Handmade Skateboard is the best-selling book on the topic of making a skateboard. Skateboarding continues to be the top extreme sport among teens and is now a $3 billion industry. Building a skateboard doesn't require a lot of equipment, materials, or time. A skateboard presents the ideal woodworking project for stale shop classes in school, popular maker pop-ups, adult-ed programs, and for kids to work on with a parent or grandparent. Making a skateboard Introduces teenagers to the benefits of hands-on crafting as they build something they will love to use. Audience Skaters, young and old, with an interest in making a personal statement with their board. Woodworkers seeking a new project to build for their children or grandchildren. Makers, crafters, and anyone looking to make a custom gift. Home schooling parents searching for that excellent craft/shop project for their kids. Shop teachers looking for the ideal project to keep their students awake in class., Build a custom skateboard of any shape and size, from a high-performance street deck to the classic longboard, that will turn heads everywhere you go. When you make your own skateboard from scratch you have the opportunity to create something that is perfectly tailored to you: a deck that matches your height, your weight, your center of balance, your skill level and your intended use. More importantly, making your own skate deck allows you to design a perfect ride to fit your style and makes a statement about who you are. There's nothing wrong with choosing off-the-shelf and mass produced, but who doesn't prefer to stand out. Be different. Be one of a kind. That's what you get with a custom handmade skateboard. Whether you are an accomplished woodworker or an absolute beginner, The Handmade Skateboard guides you step-by-step through building five skateboard designs; from a simple Hack Board built in a few spare hours to a high-performance street deck pressed from seven layers of high-quality Maple veneers. A design guide covers everything you need to know about sizing and shaping your deck and choosing the right trucks and hardware. And helpful photos, illustrations and detailed written instructions throughout provide all the information and motivation you need to make your own skateboard from scratch.

The item was marked as delivered on May 27th to a “reception area,” even though I live in a single-family home. Clearly a USPS error. I reached out to the seller, who responded quickly and assured me the book was on the way. It finally arrived safely on June 7th. Not the seller’s fault, and I appreciate their professionalism and communication throughout. Would buy from them again.
