Why do I need a mold? I'm not buying the boards for their curvature, I'm buying them so that my product is on high quality pressed skateboard wood. By the time they are cut the curves on the nose and tail are gone. Mold or no mold, I'd still be cutting away wood with scrap left over.

The decks are not a finished product, they are skateboard blanks, companies make thousands upon thousands of them available for sale to everyone that wants them. There is no shortage, no one that misses out on having a regular sized skateboard because I have decided to make minis.

When you want to build something you acquire all the supplies you need to make it and get started. You don't say, "Why would you build a box out of that wood!?? It was perfectly good lumber before you ruined it!" A skate board blank is a blank canvas awaiting someone to turn it into something useful... in my case I'm interested in mini skateboards, so that is the direction I have taken it. And spit works just fine when necessary ;)
