Went on eBay to show my friend some stuff, and then I saw these wooden cruisers. They cost 8 dollars, and look really nice to paint it or something. They are really cheap compared to Brutal fingerboards, but has anyone tried this? They are probably made in china, but the seller comes from California. Has anyone ever tried these or heard about them? Wanna try them.

brutal fingerboards have some of the best crafsmanship you can find in finerboarding you cannot even compare these china decks to brutal cruisers.

Not sure if they're china, the seller has some other fingerboard stuff that doesn't look china shape. Sells a lot of skateboards so they've probably just stumbled across fingerboarding and made a few.
Also got this shape; http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Old-School-Pool-shape-Fingerboard-Wooden-Wood-Dyed-Tech-Deck-/251052510041?pt=US_Action_Figures&hash=item3a73e54b59

Noticed a CNC bit on the page too, so these are probably CNC'd.

They don't look super awful, definitely something fun to screw around with, decorate, and maybe even practice sanding if you are trying to start a deck company.
I'd like to try one out happy

They look fun for DIY stuff but I would seriously suggest getting a brutal. Each brutal is a work of art that Trent pours his heart and soul into. You would also be supporting a rad fbhq member  very happy

Whereas quality generally matters much more than quantity, if you just want a fun little cruiser the fuck about with then I don't think it's too bad.
Brutals look sweet but at $35 it's not really a price tag that everyone can afford for something to just mess about with and trash up.

I can vouch for Brutal. Brutal fingerboards has some of the nicest craftsmanship i've seen. Definitely worth 35 dollars in my opinion.
