Lately, I like to create and play wooden fingerboard. Actually, the activity originated from a limitation that I experienced when I want to play the fingerboard. The first limitation is that almost all of the fingerboard sold in this country (Indonesia) is a plastic fingerboard with techdeck brands (either original or fake). I do not particularly like to play with plastic fingerboard because according to my observations play wooden fingerboard has a satisfaction rate is far above the plastic fingerboard (the feeling when playing, weight, grip, sound from the board when popping, etc.). Especially when I watched a video on youtube about how to play the fingerboard.
The second limitation is if anyone is selling wooden fingerboard in Indonesia certainly at very expensive prices. Actually the price is not expensive if wooden fingerboard is made in Indonesia. Perhaps because wooden fingerboard that circulated in Indonesia still imported from abroad resulting shipping costs more than average, or perhaps because of the demand of wooden fingerboard were aplenty. It is certainly very tormenting students with the financial condition of below-average like me who want to have a wooden fingerboard (poor me).
Having experienced prolonged suffering I decided to contemplate and finally I experienced an epiphany. Without having to linger late into grief, I immediately share my experience and experimentation in making this wood fingerboard.
Tools and materials required in making wooden fingerboard are :
1. vinyl wood, a wood that is usually used in making mockups of buildings
2. griptape a.k.a sandpaper,
3. 2mm cardboard, as mall shape boards that will be used
4. wood glue, rajawali is a brand that’s usually familiar in Indonesia
5. stationery, try that spired like drawing pen, rapido, or mechanical pencil
6. The cutting tools, can use scissors or cutter
7. and the last and most important is the determination as strong as steel, and unyielding
How to make a wooden fingerboard:
1. form a pattern on cardboard 2mm, adjust the ergonomics of your fingers. Then cut to the pattern.
2. Please draw the pattern on wood vinyl as many as 6 to 8 pieces according to the thickness you want.
3. Please draw the appropriate pattern on sandpaper
4. Simply cutting vinyl wood and sandpaper follow the pattern
5. paste all using wood glue, shape of tail, nose, and curve
6. wait until the glue dry completely, and then let's destroy your fingers.
