I used marine grade epoxy i believe it was called marine guard 8000

I used tite bond 2, it's more water resistant than tite bond 1 but not quite as water resistant as tite bond 3

I used a program on my laptop like Google sketch up, made a part that looked like the template in there and then printed this page out to a 2d drawing of a custom paper size. I finally took this drawing of the part to a printing shop where it cost a few dollars in order to have the page printed on that size paper

I agree I should have shown how the vice works but the rubber serves as enough friction to hold the ski while waxing

TheTorkerman-Adam Thank you Adam I actually just googled what model bindings I had and added the words drill/mounting guide

I'm sorry I never saw this comment, my tip and tails actually had 0 sag but I had a 100% camber ski, since the rocker portion of the ski is a shorter than what is typically the camber portion, I'd assume a half cm of sag.

Mason Lebakken I uses ipe and poplar for the core and side walls, the top sheet is white oak veneer

Wim Prest thanks will do next time

Hunter Newman I started with 3/4 inch and then worked it down to the profile for my weight and length

Brady White no you will not however, if you add that strip of fiberglass under your foot the ski will be stiffer there and your binding screws will have more to bite into.

ok awesome thanks btw ur vids are so helful

The binding video is coming out tonight

Patrick Piekarski finally dude!! So excited

alexmost1234 yes that was just styrofoam, and there were no creases left from the pressure except for some very faint lines around the aluminum sheet I put in indicating my binding mounting area.

The binding video is coming out tonight

John Walsh there's a critic in every crowd...why not explain what he did wrong next time...instead of coming off arrogant..such as..When you run wood through the saw, you should push it past the blade and remove it, this will help eliminate kick back or binding up the blade while pulling the wood past it while running.

Ben Verlooy yes there are Im a junior in highschool and have got caught up in finals and SATs and stuff like that so stay tuned next videos should be out in a few weeks when school is over

Great! I'm looking forward to it!

Bombard16 I have not gotten around to editing the videos yet but my first ski is going into the press tonight!

thank you very much

TheMatrixPotatoe harbor freight usually had a 20-25℅ off coupon about 70 percent of the year

TheMatrixPotatoe thank you it would be nice to see that happen. I'm hoping my next brings in some subs because it should tie in the building and skiing communities. I will be attempting to make my own pair of skis.

the knife had approximately a 4 inch blade and a 5 inch handle, I will be posting more videos about the knife but the hook broke off during heat treatment so waiting to get a welder to continue the project.
