As I recall there were other stories on the guys shop out there, mostly on design or skate websites, you might find a peek at how they do it!

Love the upside down fender jack plate. I will swipe that idea.

I was eyeballing some nice plywood in the scrap pile at work.... These have that wonderful bend from the back of the board, could you bend plywood?

Yup.   Cool, pretty and maybe even comfortable.
