Re: Pneumatic ski press mold
You need to try, too many parameters involved like fibres you use, resin, core material, ski lenght and thickness,.... to predict springback.

Re: Which fiber is best at retaining screws
No fibre is really good for screw retention. If you wanna use fibres the thickness is the key. The thicker & denser the better. That said you can use pieces of quadrax glas or multiple layers of fine woven glas. Titanal would be not so bad but titanal usually bonds not good, so you dont rip out ...

Re: Sublimation warping
Industrial process (regarding to isosport) is to cool under pressure after sublimation. Not sure if this is done with roll or plate machines. The problem is you have just a few seconds between, otherwise it starts to act like a snake already

Re: Wooden backcountry skis
On every tab of the edge (which is not good) or on every X tab? If the base wood is soaking the glue too much, try a gel type. I assume the edges have no gaps when you fix them with glue, the gaps are coming during pressing? And try just using the superglue without spray fix. P.S. you clean your edg...

Re: Wooden backcountry skis
Cool! If you like to go lightweight switch to full carbon fibres. You will have to make the core thinner as well (if you stay with ash) which will also shave off some weight... But ... if your skis are not made mainly for freeride or high speed you can change to another more lightweight wood. This c...

Re: Polyester fleece or fleecing a carbon fiber ski
Normally biax carbon to the core should be ok. VDS, kork,... adds weight. You should examine more how it delaminates. There is the possibility that the glass UD is streching/compressing so much more compared to the biax carbon that the carbon starts to buckle and creates the delam issue
