Long over due update
Progression of our builds since my last post in 2012 We built a camber/rocker jig that allows us to modify for our different lengths and shapes. Seems to work really well, can line up 2 sets of identical skis and they match camber and rocker. http://i1043.photobucket.com/albums/b435/Frontierskis/201...

We do our rabbiting before we profile the core using an old skate board wheel as our guide for rabbiting our edge's. Works perfectly, just drew a straight line on the router table as a guide to follow. https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-_MjqlFcXjUw/TxeTbg93gLI/AAAAAAAAFrM/uQbjXIwWKzY/s400/P1070052.J...

something that can cycle on and off, as once it pulls vacuum and you begin to develop a minor leak the pump wont have enough power to start up again. Will expand the life of your pump and allows you to leave and come back hours later, but you will want to build something like this. Works just like a...
