CF as a top sheet
Hello deepskis, I´m new posting here in Ski Builders, a lot of years looking everything but recently building skis. I have a delam problem with the graphics and top sheet and I was thinking about replace the graphics with 2 layers of CF bid 5oz, is this enough? If I put only one layer of CF this could crack?
Cheers.

Example with glass over graphics

Cf instead of graphics
Thanks a lot Deep, here in Chile its hard to find suppliers and more difficult find someone with the knowledge about. We are going to try it the Cf this night, only two question, how many layers of CF we need to use? work it with only one layer of cf? and, can we use the clear top sheet to protect the CF and epoxy to the UV sun light and scratches without problem?
Thanks again, cheers.

Love the pics of the build!
I'm really interested in how the edge bender works. Would it be possible to have a short description of how you bend an edge or maybe a couple of photos?
I'm about to build one myself (for snowboards), and came across this the other day:
Curious to know how it works with 3 wheels.
Cheers,
Will.

I've got a thread on here with some drawings for the dies and a description of how to build it. It's an excellent bender with great results! Yours looks great deepskis!ww wrote: I'm really interested in how the edge bender works. Would it be possible to have a short description of how you bend an edge or maybe a couple of photos?
And congrats on the grinder, that thing's beautiful!
