If someone is interested...

How did the test turn out?

Maybe you can ask your source who they sell larger quantities to and then ask them whether they would be willing to sell you a smaller amount. I do not have my heart set on it that much to call up random companies and ask to buy some from them. Plan B ... smooth on. Just want to find the right prod...

Would you like me to put some strips in a freezer? This are 310 strips, 1/4" wide (my router bit) by 5-6mm high, precured PU as per here: http://www.skibuilders.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=4610 PS Ok, I did put some, results tomorrow. Sure why not. Has anyone tried the Simpact 85A from smooth on?

Guess I'm not going to go with them the smallest amount they sell is 5 gallons.

So smooth on people how are the sidewalls holding up from this unusually cold winter?

ok good to know, I'm going to go with them.

Never tried it like this, but I don't see why it shouldn't work. If you plan on making such a long section with just PU, I'd recommend getting a harder formula (around 60 shore D) to avoid getting too soft tips. I looked in to adiprene and cant really find any place to buy it, also be doing some re...

Tip and tail spacers are deleted when using this method. You simply rout a trench around the entire perimeter of the board and fill with your favourite urethane. No favorites yet still researching what kind will fit my skis best. So I could fill the entire area that the tip spacer fits in , say 120...

Been reading up on this process and I have a few questions.

1. Adiprene or Smooth on?

2. Urethane Rubber or Urethane Plastic?

3. Would it work to pour pu tip and tail spaces along with the sidewalls?

As of right now my plan is making a vacuum camber to be used with a shop vac and make a few holes to hold the core down on the table which will be 3/4 mdf. It will be support under the table to keep the vac camber and the rest of it rigid. For the runners I'm thinking square metal bars that will be ...

http://i62.tinypic.com/2pt6lif.png From what I see which is the obvious it is a metal bar that seems to have threaded holes for bolts. The bolts go through the table and the height is adjusted by tighten or loosen the bolt. I think at least that is how it works. I have done some searches for a meta...

what about spar urethane? i know people use it on veneer top sheets. Wouldnt that work for wood sidewalls as well?

Been using west system.

Looking for a new epoxy that is easy to buy in stores, and has a simple 1:1 ratio.

Did you use it for a full set of skis? Or just a repair?

Just found this while looking around for some new epoxy. After reading some reviews it sounds like an easy to use, super strong epoxy and easy to mix with 1:1 ration. Has anyone on here ever used it?
