Do Make

In Do Make, James has created a book to explore the lessons, experiences and memorable moments from the ten years of running Otter Surfboards and sharing the fun of making our wooden surfboards.

By using our hands to transform natural materials into objects of beauty and utility, we reconnect with our creativity, our environment, and back to ourselves.

Learn about:

• Preparation: what to make, where and how to get started

• Process: learn to trust it and let go of perfection

• Power: develop confidence in your natural skills and ability

With incredible photography, plenty of encouragement, and even a ‘how-to’ guide to make your own handplane to take bodysurfing, Do Make reminds us that nothing quite beats the feeling of having made something with our own hands.
