The hand pump is probably fine. Unfortunately there is just not enough pressure with roarokit vac bag alone to do gnarly bends like sharp drops or w's. To do these you will need addtional external clamps.

I'm a bit disappointed in my vac bag for pressing. Tried with te negative side of one of my moulds n it won't pump out enough air to suck in to the w concave section. Wonder if the hand pump Is paste it's prime?

Oi Dermontt you can get hoop pine and marine ply from mister ply and wood.
But I don't know were you would get Baltic birch from but if you find a place it would be very expensive .....

usuable veneer of any kind is very hard to find in Aus. The people who do know where to get it know this and probably won't tell you. Your probably better off, availability wise, going for a thin ply - marine, hoop or baltic birch. As Dermott said Good luck ;) , you will need it...

hey lads and lasses
got the news a couple of days ago that ive ruptured my ACL :( won't be skating for 6-9 months at least after surgery, I was thinking of getting into a bit of board building to keep me from going mental,
Ive looked through the thread a bit before posting this comment and ive done a bit of research, I also do have a press that I can use. But im still a bit in the dark, it would be awesome if someone could point me in the right direction.Thankyou
