It
was incredibly nice of the construction workers to give me plywood for my
board… but as it had been outside and exposed to the elements for weeks, maybe
months, the boards needed a bit of prep work before there were ready to be
pressed. I rigorously sanded down both sides of the wood and did my best to remove all of the
dirt and other residue. Although it was time consuming, it was necessary if I
wanted to get the best adhesion.
I should also note that I used two sheets of
plywood at 3/8’’ inch but ideally you would use two or three sheets
of ¼ inch plywood just so that your board doesn’t get too thick (try to stay under and inch total). The thicker
the board overall, the heavier and less maneuverable it is.
