Homemade Board

I found a long strip of unfinished wood in the rafters of our garage. I told my dad I wanted to see if we could make a skateboard out of it. My dad had some tools and I had an idea for the shape of the board.

First we started out with some plans:

We drew on the wood where we wanted to cut. We used a jigsaw and then an electric sander to finish the edges. After we finished the shape, we spray painted the design on it.

This is how it turned out:




It rides pretty smooth for a homemade board! I can even ride it to school.
