Oh boy, another build to follow. Grab a beer and pop the corn and sit back and relax. Looking forward to following this one.

Sounds Like FUN!!! :D

SURFIN' FEET!!!

The Beach Bunny Feet are BiG!

Good thing Freddy only needs 3 toes for each foot!

First I cut the Heel from each Foot.

Next I cut 2 Toes from the middle and reduced the width of the Foot by about 3/16".

Glued the Feet back together, and filled the gaps with Squadon Putty.

Then I Sanded them Smooth...

Freddy just had to try on his new Feet.

I think he likes them...Now he needs some legs!

That's a BiG Surf Board!

Ira ol' buddy, how tall is Freddy? The reason I ask is because I have a 1/8th TDR resin long board with fin.

It's close to 18" in length and has all the proper curves etc.

The master was created by Strevo (SMC member).

I'm thinking that there would be plenty of room for Freddy, maybe even a beach bunny tossed over his shoulder and an engine.........either an outboard or perhaps a small block Chevy, 4 banger, flathead, whatever with prop on the tail end and tiller steering?

If you want to use it to come up with something really, really far out drop me a line by E and I'll mail it out to ya......NO CHARGE, just my way of thanking you for all the inspiration pal. I'll post a pic if you wanna see it.

Thank you for the kind offer Don!

You made my day, I've got a BiG Smile on my face.... :D

Freddy will be about 3 1/2" high when he gets his legs attached.

Will probably have to adjust his Surfboard a little... :)

Thanks Again!

You're more than welcome pal, here's a few pics with Mrs. hand to give you a better idea of the size and shape...looks a lot better than a flat piece of plastic, huh?

It's got more curves than Mae West....hee, hee.

There a "bit" missing from the end....shark bite?

Easy enough to patch or hide in a wave.

I guess then "Hanging 10" is out of the question ! Hang 6 ?

Hanging 6 Sounds Good!

But, Freddy will probably be Hanging 16, (including Fingers), for a while, untill he gets used to the Water!

:D

This going to be a really cool build. You're off to a great start.

That resin board ccould have the tail repaired a few ways. The old traditional square tail, a dimond tail or "fish" tail.
