Experiment No. 3 - Scrap Surf
Shwood founder Eric Singer teams up with friends to create a unique wooden surfboard. Watch how Singer and company process and shape this functional one-of-a-kind board using reclaimed wood found on the Oregon coast. See more: https://www.shwoodshop.com/us The construction process was guided by the expertise of Joe Blecha, a bona fide virtuoso of custom surf and snowboard construction. www.blechaboardshop.com Kahana Kalama, professional surfer turned shop-owner (www.alohasunday.com), was there to test the limits of the handmade board upon its completion. Based in Portland, Oregon, Shwood creates handcrafted wooden eyewear using fine exotic hardwoods. Shwood's in-house manufacturing process merges precision technology with classic skilled craftsmanship to create a timeless art form. Every step from veneering and precision lens cutting, to shaping and finishing is conducted in our own Portland-based workshop to promise an entirely handcrafted eyewear piece.

Creating & SURFING a DIY Plywood Surfboard
I've been wanting to build this plywood surfboard for years, but today the scenarios all just came together for a DIY surfboard creating project. Not only did it actually surf it kind of ripped! I am stoked on the creation & excited to try some more stuff like this. Thanks for the stoke! - Ben
