Moving off of the rocker table and to the stands!

The rocker table serves a function for maintaining your rocker and balance in the board so the board doesn't twist. But eventually to get those bottom planks you have to move the board to the stands. I use the bar clamps because the boards of twisted in storage so I have to bend them back into place. I really prefer each blank to be clamped to eat rib eye just makes me feel like the board is going to be a stronger board and will last longer that way. Sometimes you will have ribs separate from the deck, but that happens after the glassing process.   Sometimes you can even feel it under your feet as you surf the board.  But by then the board is wrapped in glass and its never going to be an issue.
