hey guys. i don't know if this will work for you guys with your telle bindings, but im putting inserts into my skis for alpine bindings, so bolt size and thread pitch wasn't a huge problem, i was pretty open to different sizes. but http://www.mcmaster.com/ has inserts. just type threaded inserts int...

OK guys. So I've searched and can't really find the answers to my question. how do you decide how thick to profile your cores under the boot? so the core thickness will help to determine the stiffness of the ski. and i understand that most people profile down to ~2mm at the tips and tails mostly for...

i might be interested. but how do you guys determine the thickness to use for you cores? all of the skis i have are somewhere around 13mm under boot and i have yet to decide how thick the first skis i build will be.

Yeah, I figured if it works for you tele guys, why wouldn't it work for me if I just set them up for one particular binding.

oh.. and what im hoping to do is buy one pair of alpine bindings and use inserts in all of the skis that i build for this one pair of bindings so that i can switch them from my powder skis (the first pair i'll be making) to my park or all mountain skis. do you guys see any problem with this idea? ki...

So, long story short, my roommate and I are getting ready to build some skis. I'll let the pictures do the talking for now and give specifics later. And I'd like to say thanks for all of the great info on this site and in the forum! ahhh man! i guess i have to post a couple times and wait till tomor...
