Chambered/Solid Paulownia Wood Surfboard Building Kit

Build your own solid or hollow wooden surfboard quickly and easily with this chambered wooden surfboard building kit.

$335.00 — $600.00

This kit includes the wood needed to shape a complete chambered Paulownia surfboard.

Shaping a solid or wooden surfboard is simple and easy. It also requires no fiberglass, just a sealer coat of resin or varnish. We use only the best Australian grown Paulownia that is very lightweight and strong. You can expect to make a strong board that will last you a lifetime and depending on your chambering technique, you will be able to get it down to a weight similar to that of a regular foam board.

Only basic tools are needed to shape your board – jigsaw, planer, sander and clamps. You can use hand tools, however it will obviously take a lot longer to finish. These tools can be picked up cheaply if you don’t already own them.

Available in the following sizes:

  • 6′ x 24″ x 4″      $335.00
  • 7′ x 24″ x4″       $355.00
  • 8′ x 24″ x 4″      $400.00
  • 8′ x 24′ x 6″ -    $600.00
  • 9’6″ x 24″ x 4″ – $500.00
  • 9’6″ x 24″ x 6″ – $650.00

What is included – 1st grade rough sawn Paulownia wood (4-6 pieces depending on order) and vented leash plug.

What you need to supply – clamps, shaping tools and glue.

The maximum rocker of your board will be determined by the thickness of your wood – i.e. the 4″ thick kits will make a board with a maximum rocker of 4″. Basic step by step instructions on how to make a chambered wooden surfboard can be found here.
