A bandsaw is close to mandatory for skibuilding...I would say
Aha, didn't recognize it...

I agree. Mine is to small and not strong enough. Problem is that I am running out of space...

A cool way to do this could be a clear base, then a layer of veneer on top of that. Then glass, core, glass and a veneer top.. :D

An easy way to do this is to put 2 inserts in the holes where you want them to be, then put some super glue on them, flip the core back, then place the core on the base. When it sits perfect press down on the inserts thrue the core for a minute. Then just lift the core up carefully. Ta da :D
