Valeu Marcelo! o modelo é Mavic Pro 1

Bees wax. Wax on and off 3 times. And I used clear tape on the bottom of the skis.

I got at Icelantic Ski factory. They gave it to me. Yeah, a while ago.

Ian Pegg what makes you so curious about that?

Thanks! Yeah, just clear tape. I used Tek bond (super glue), but it can be a quick dry epoxy. Might be even better. The top sheet I ordered from skibuilders.com

@@marinioac Thank you!

I cut the tip of the edge of, so I didn't have to make the turn with it. It's hard to bend the edges and it doesn't change the performance.

Luke Griffin 😂😂😂😂

Hey, I don't make skis for living. I'm sorry... I'm living in Brazil now. Thanks for the interest.

I can build you a pair!

@@marinioac youv got a killer brazilian track there

TheGerakas no 😕

wak I'm an industrial designer and I learned the ski manufacturing process on my own researching and visiting factories and trying a lot of different skis at retailer conferences. The vacuum bag does a better job than just pressing with force because it helps spread the epoxy more evenly. But it doesn't substitute the heating. The heating helps bond everything. It's not essential but it would have been better. My skis are handmade but the are definitely skiable. I made a mistake on the project that has nothing to do with the fabrication. The point of making yourself is not to make a better finished product than a manufacture (they have more machines and tools) but it is to make the model you want and also have the pleasure to make yourself.

I don't know if they ship to Europe, but I got at: www.snowboardmaterials.com/

Hi, it has been some time but if you still need them you and happen to be in Germany you can simply order them here: www.skibaumarkt.de/shop/ Maybe he also ships to other european countries... Just write the owner of the shop a message, he is very friendly.

Eric Bragg well there isn't a specific shop. In this case I took advantage of my school's shop to make it (the department of industrial design of the Metropolitan State University of Denver) But it's possible to make a ski with just a hand router. It takes longer, but it's possible.

Adrian Rauta check out the credits. All the songs are written there.

Hi Brennan, this attachment is not so critical because everything is going to get sandwiched in the press. I used epoxy, but it's definitely not super strong. It's just so stays together for the press.

Ok! So you epoxied the spacers just slightly ontop of the wood core then?

Hi. I have another question regarding the tip/tail filler. If you look at the video at around 7:00 when you are gluing the filler it looks as if the core is quite a lot thicker than the filler itself. Did you use 2 layers of filler or is there a notch in the thickness of the ski at this point?

Actually i epoxied edge to edge. The fiber glass, the top and the bottom layer with all the epoxy holds everything together pretty well

there was a notch on my. But this makes no difference on the stranght or performance. It was a CAD mistake. If I make another one, I will fix that. But it's not a problem.

I can send them to you, but they need adjustments. Also, the fun part is to design the template to how you want.

Could you possibly send the Template to me, I'm doing it for a school project and i need evidence of research and having some templates i could change would be great.

you can get all the material at: www.snowboardmaterials.com/

Thanks! You can definitely press one at the time. The vacuum bag is not needed, but it´s wayyyyy better because helps the resin spread evenly and keeps the ski more compact.

Well I did both, but it was too much. You can press with the top molde or press using vacuum bag. Both at the same time is over kill. Choose one or the other
