Finally finished getting everything set up in my new garage (moved from Tahoe to Reno for School), and made some time to press some boards out.
Lots of Love
The core is thicker than the tip spacer, so added a couple of pieces of glass for the transition.

Heating up
Ready to cut.

Kam,
Once I got started, I had to keep running.

Excellent looking skis. What was the thickness difference between your core and tipspacer that you stepped with the glass? How did the fit come out?

The core to tip spacer step was about 2.5 mm, and it came out smooth. Used 2 pieces of glass, one about 2 inches long and another 4 inch piece over that.
