Is there any other type of Vac. 'v been looking at something like this. Will it work?

how much would this type of design cost? And is it as flawless as the Pneumatic press?

However be prepared if you do build a solid vacuum pump that its not cheap

What do you mean by solid Vacuum Pump?

So the Actual ski construction steps are the same as the "HowTo" section, even if your using the Vacuum press method? I am building a vacuum press and Skis in less than 3 months. So any and all help would be very appreciated!

What kind of pump (Exactly) do you need? and what is the over all cost?

This is the most Educational part of this whole forum! I am going to a Engineering and science school in Wausau. I really needed information like this. So if you guys could come to a conclusion than I would appreciate it. I'll also ask my science and math teacher about this.

Serious? If you can't handle the googlz, building skis might be beyond your capabilities...

Sorry dude..That was actually my lazy side coming out. I'm also getting sick of all this searching..I'm 17 and doing this for a school project

I think you're better off buying a real vacuum pump.

You can find used ones for not too much. $50-$100 will get you a decent Gast pump on ebay.

Can you send me a link? Because I am not good at searching for that kind of stuff

How much would it cost to build a vacuume press from start to finish?

I am getting mixed information. If I wanted to build a vacume pump at a decent price that could put out 14psi easily, how much would it cost? And would it mold the skis good enough for lets say, Rails.?

Ok thanks, I didn't know that, I did know k2 owns line though

I am only 17 and I know the investment buying something like this would be. Specially when your doing rails and going through a 700 dollar pair of skis a year. But I don't have a job! and my parent's won't borrow me money. I really have been searching for jobs tho!

Never mind..Forgot about the very beginning..Dang. Do you have everything you will need to make 1 pair skis.

How would you ship ski press? where do you live? And how much?

Why isn't there videos from other big ski brands? like armada, k2, rossingnol, and anyone else
