for you guys building boards, not including tools, what's your total cost for blank, glass, resin, fin boxes, etc. ?
WC and I got some old Clark blanks from a friend of an OSPer for $60 ea.
Most of the expense is gonna be the blank so $60-150 depending on length(also shipping). A lot of the marine supply stores have 6oz(and heavier) cloth but probably won't have 4oz and their cost is about the same as ordering online when you factor in shipping. They'll also have epoxy and poly resin but the price can be high.
So my cost:
Blank $60
Cloth $30
poly resin $30
future fins/boxes(no frills) $35
leashplug $2
=$157
Add a liberal $10-15 for paint, if wanted, and you got a really cheap new board. But if you order a blank from the web add another $30-70.
