| 215823 | 10983 | Have boards got even more expensive in the past couple months? | 52 | jory | Aug 5, 2021 | 2021-08-05T16:40:29-0400 | HerbB said: So if Bob offered to whittle a one-timer out with his trusty old skil you'd tell him no thanks, just give me one from the CNC? Click to expand... Well that s where the discussion about a board as a piece of functional art versus a tool to enjoy a pastime springs from. His point was that as an old man he could make you a better surfing board using the cnc. It's value as an objet d'art is a different discussion. The signed print analogy doesn't really hold up in this case. A signed print is maybe like buying a thunderbolt or a surftech. A cnc hand finished by a "name" shaper is like a mixed media artist using something premade as a basis for customisation to create their art piece. |
