Saw your boat on a trailer yesterday. I thought that's a cool looking boat, and looked it up. A little disappointed to see it is homemade, but it is very nice. Looks like a blast.

SCAMP can be bought in fiberglass if boatbuilding isn’t your thing.

Can you use any wax, like beeswax, for instance?

Hi! Sorry I didn’t notice your question earlier: Yes , I use glide wax on these skis along with kick wax in the kick section of the ski. Have a great day!

Awesome! I’m in the process of making my own currently. Are you using kick wax and glide wax?

Thanks Nick! If you finish the Beuchel and want me to include it in my gallery of hand made wooden horns, then send me a photo. Details at www.argobuilder.com/alphorn-gallery.html

What an amazing project. Thank you for posting your designs - you got the acoustics spot on. The harmonics sound like they line up perfectly. I am hoping to make a buchel this year! Beautiful work and thank you.

Congratulations! Argo is beautiful. Your blog is also exceptional. I find it soothing, perhaps a kind of fortified wine of the internet.

Wow; what a fantastic project! Your finished creation looks phenomenal. Really enjoyed the video editing with your playing of the alphorn in the background, too.

Well done! Thank you for sharing this journey with us. A note: keep text on the screen a bit longer, it was too fast to read in the given time.

These are beautiful! For kick does the ski function like a waxed classic ski where you apply glide wax front and tail with kick wax in the middle or is it more similar to a skate ski for pushing off?

Hi! These skis function like a exes classic ski with glide wax and kick wax; not like skating skis. Peace! -Jason

Hi! Just now saw your comment: we have hills and valleys here in Wisconsin but no mountain valleys. It would be great to play one of these in the mountains but for the time being my Alphorn will make its sound at home in Wisconsin.

Thanks for the comment. I will need to research that for my next pair of skis. I have seen old paintings with the carving on the top side and also on the bottom. Bergslien’s painting with two skiers from 1869 shows the carvings on top on one pair of skis and on the bottom on the other pair of skis. Then again, he was a painter not a ski maker. I rewatched the video of Olav Aasmundtveit making skis, and his carving is on the bottom as you say. Thanks for the note. Cheers.
