, usually it doesnt flex back mate....
however the 3 layers of 4mm will probably have a rather saggy flex, this is what ive seen with marine ply, better off using 4 and going stiff. however, experimentation is the best way of finding what you like

ok, thanks. i should take it out soon then. i was actually hoping that it would flex back to give a 12.5 cm concave

@ Sufyan. No, so long as you apply the right pressure and let the glue cure, ie press hard and leave it in for longer than pack says, just to be sure ;)

pressing my board right now. the press was designed with a 2cm concave and ive used marine ply. will the board flex back when i take it out?
-

i hear youve used marine ply. im making a drop through with 3 layers of 4mm. is that enough?
about aerodux. its a 2 part glue. im pretty sure the guy at toothless used it on his boards. apparently its aircraft standard
