Assemble your materials. You will need a core board, fiberglass mat, fiberglass cloth, polyester or epoxy resins and catalysts. You also should get a gel coat. Equipment is minimal. Work with heavy rubber gloves. You need solvents too. Inquire at the shop you deal with. Acetone may be restricted. Shape the board. Lay on glass mat, wet it out with your resin mix. When it is almost dry lay on the glass cloth, wet it out. Let it dry. Paint on the gel coat. You need to experiment with your lay-up so to get it stiff. You can also try building with Kevlar cloth.
