Publisher's Synopsis
DIY Handmade Skateboard is the essential guidebook on making handmade skate decks of all shapes and sizes, from high-performance street decks to vintage longboards and eye-catching vintage pinstripe cruisers.
The Handmade Skateboard takes you step by step through the construction of skateboard designs, from a simple Hack Board created in a few spare hours to a high-performance street deck pressed from seven layers of high-quality Maple veneers.
A design guide will teach you all you need to know about deck dimensions and shape, as well as selecting the proper trucks and hardware. And throughout, clear photographs, drawings, and clear written instructions give all of the knowledge and enthusiasm you need to build your own skateboard from the scratch.
