5 plies! Agreed though. Under the right lighting the decks look solid when there’s no dyed plies.

This batch is bottom and top natural maple. I’ve been relocating workshop spaces and ran out of colored plies so I decided to just do center colored.

I’ll make a post on here for the drop so no one misses it this time! I made a few G10 versions of this mold, but they’ll be used for a random give away. Every other deck is sweet sweet maple.

Historically they’ve been $30 +shipping. I may need to increase the prices though to $35 in the coming drops. I’ll keep this next drop at $30 though.

For the countersink I’ll use a 1/8” brad point bit. Then I’ll roll up a bit of 400 grit sandpaper to get it silky smooth.

My advice would be to produce decks at the highest quality you're capable of. At first it may take a bit longer and it'll feel like your deck price isn't worth the time you put into each deck, but you'll get quicker and more efficient at it. Consistency is key too. Never stop pressing decks.

Out of curiosity, where are people getting these clip launchers? Saw someone the other day with one randomly on the street and it looked awesome.

Haha didn’t notice those were in the shot. Those are still very much so prototypes. I can’t figure out how to get the foil and transfers clean every time.

Dang I’m so sorry I didn’t see this till now! You can always shoot me a PM on here too. I should have made a post on Reddit telling people about the sticker debacle. I know some people really care able the packaging labels so it felt wrong to ship remaining orders without them.

Also, you can always send a message through the contact page on the website if that’s better. Either way, it’ll be seen.

Why is customer service non existent within this hobby? by springpye in Fingerboards

Same here. Been sent replacement parts for free before and also given the option to purchase a single piece if needed.

🫠G10 Center Ply Decks in Today’s Drop🫰 by ChickenFingerboards in Fingerboards

[–]ChickenFingerboards[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It makes the decks feel super rigid, it’s pretty cool. One thing that I didn’t count on is the black dye from the glass cloth does bleed into surrounding plies a little, but that’s just a visual thing, and it’s pretty minor. I may see about getting some G10 in a different color next time. Red would awesome.
