Surfboard Kits are becoming more and more popular with the modernization and availability of CNC machines. While many still choose to make a one using hollow surfboard plans and cutting individual pieces, many funboard builders want to build a surfboard without the time consuming requirements of cutting each piece. Surfboard kits are a great way to save time and build a quality surfboard since the pieces are usually precision cut and created out of quality wood. These kits can be shipped from a variety of vendors and manufacturers and sometimes can be received overnight shipping. The cost of the kits, including shipping, will still be less than purchasing the materials from a local vendor of lumber. Building a surfboard using a kit can be similar to building a model airplane since they come pre-cut and with details instructions and diagrams.
Many surfers and craftsman choose to build a longboard using surfboard plans or templates even though kits are available. These blueprints are available for purchase for a fraction of the cost of a surfboard kit. Some that build wooden surfboards save money buy using surfboard plans because they don't have to pay for shipping for the kit and all the wood. Surfboard kits are not small items and cost more to ship. Surfboard plans can be obtained over the internet and sometimes available for instant download after purchase. Other than pride of building a surfboard from scratch without a kit, surfers find that it can also be just as fast since since you can cut out the different parts of the wooden frame in the time it would have take to ship the surfboard kit.
