1. Sidewall comes detached from core during planeing Yep, welcome to the club. This is difficult for many people. Some folks have found good success. I profile my core/sidewalls together on my CNC router, by covering the bottom with masking tape then spray-gluing it down to a piece of MDF that is cl...

Hang on a minute - is that the coolest thing I've ever seen on homemade skis? I think it just might be. Well done, those are gorgeous skis.
