Equipment needed for producing a long-board:

Plywood or hardwood to build your deck (2-3 sheets)

Wood glue or another strong adhesive

Rough and fine-grained sandpaper

8 small screws to attach the trucks to the deck - four for each truck. The screws should be long enough that they get in the way. Match the width to the size of the holes in your trucks.

Screws or a staple-gun to help seal the board when you shape its curve. The amount of screws may not be necessary if you use a board press, but they will make your deck much tighter if you are molding it with basic weights or clamps.

A drill

Weights

A jig saw to cut the deck

Polyurethane varnish or fiberglass resin, hardening, and cloth

A large piece of paper and a pencil for drawing out your board design

Grip tape (to make it easier for your feet to stick to the top of the board)

The mold made is below! This holds the sheets of wood together plus it is curved to give that all important bend in the board!

Choose your wood. For a cheap board,use 2-3, 1/4 inch thick plywood sheets or 4-6 1/8 inch sheets. Alternatively, use 7-9 piles, each about one mm thick. You will use screws or wood glue to fuse these pieces of wood together into a long-board deck. The amount of sheets that you depends upon how much flex you want: the more layers of wood, the more rigid your board will be. You can also buy a pre-pressed deck and build your long-board out from this.

If you have the time or money to do so, try to find high-quality wood. Bamboo, Birch, White Ash, and Maple are popular choices, and each offers a different ride. Bamboo will be the strongest of the three. Each piece of wood should be 10 inches wide by 40 inches long, or longer board. You should have a basic idea of the shape of board you want before you start to build one. Remember, however, that you can always cut piece of wood is usually dry, and thus better for construction than riding. An actual lumberyard would work best. Realistically, you can use almost any hardwood - even salvaged pieces of flooring.
