Boardcrafter Snowboard Building - Making Snowboard Mold Ribs

With Boardcrafter Design’s ability to print snowboard templates at 1:1 scale using a standard printer and the introduction of the free shapes library the need for preprinted templates has been eliminated.

The snowboard templates previously available in the Boardcrafter shop have been removed. The shop still provides component snowboard materials and software registration keys.

Making Snowboard Mold Ribs - Part 4

Written by Dante Martin

The actual snowboard mold ribs are made by copying the mold rib template made in Part 3. This is done by:

Cutting planks to a desired length
Slightly offsetting the template shape and tracing it with a pencil
Cutting along the drawn mold rib shape with a jig saw to make a ‘rough snowboard mold rib’
Using a trim router and the mold rib template to make an exact mold rib copy
Repeating these steps until the desired number of mold ribs are made

Measuring Tape
Pencil
Carpenter’s Square
Circular Saw
Mold Rib Template
Bar Clamps
Jig Saw
Woodcutting Jig Saw Blade
