And if you dont have any building expierience i would definatley start out with something easier first, like skate boards. Just so you can get the hang of lamination and working with resin

dude, i am doing it right now. in order to do it right, its a good chunk of money, getting our setup finished cost us roughly 1500, and we got 80% of the shit for free. granted, you do have a background, so i think you prolly could, but if you wanna seriously do it, give me an pm.
