Jet-Surf from Ukraine

Hi everyone! My name is Max, and I build my first jet-surf with my friend Bogdan.
We are from Kiev, and there is no sea and waves, so we decides to come this way.
We started in April and we have only 2-3 days (1-2 hours each time) a week.
Sorry for some grammar mistakes)

1st step: gluing the blank





2nd step: shaping

3rd step: printing jet

Hi!
we get it somewhere in web, but it was not exactly what we need (we get only general dimensions of blank there).

you can get in touch with me here: Redirecting...

sss 56104/500kv was arrived :airplane::muscle::merman:

shaping, shaping, shaping

then we started testing various proportions of hardener and resin :mask::tumbler_glass::mask: :
the best was 100:15 (resin Epoxy-520 & hardener “ПЭПА”)

Laminating!

Looks like you are using a Ben Murphy Pinshape design for the nozzle/duct - I have printed this out, for a project of my own, and think it’s a pretty decent design, except that the intake is too small for the nozzle size - I think the intake needs to be at least 50% bigger otherwise it will restrict the flow through the nozzle, with a corresponding loss in thrust.

floating testing

yet another photos:

I saw you was telling him about that, so we asked to print it with some bigger intake (less than 50%, but better than nothing)
