i'm working on my first pair of ski's, i have finished the mould.
Now im start to size the materials and i was cutting the base with a standard hobby knife which was kinda of difficult so i tried a pair of heavy duty scissors and it works perfect, so thats my the to you all use heavy duty scissors to cut the base and topsheet!

I cut my bases slightly oversize with my Kevlar shears, and let them sit for a day.

Then I hit them with my template and a 1/4" straight bit in the router.
