In this video of the video series "How to Build a Surfboard", I go over shaping the rails and start marking out the guidelines (railbands) for the rails.
There are two angles filmed, one from my head and the other from a fixed camera.
For a reference on how to mark the rail bands and where I buy most of my surf supplies and link to how to mark the rail bands, including downloadable PDF's guides : (Click on "How to Build a Surfboard"):
There will be a link to a PDF with boxy and knifey rail bands.
Great guys to deal with and the affiliate link helps me build the channel, I get a small percentage of the sale but it costs you nothing though!
and search for the book "Surfboard_Design_and_Construction_1977", information on shaping rail bands in this old book as well.
Here is the playlist for the video series:
I also have a newer build series here:
