I drag-knife my bases on my CNC (I'm in Kenmore). Unfortunately I have basically zero free time these days, so I can't offer to cut bases for you at this time.

Also, for what its worth, you really don't want to be cutting out your bases until you're pretty much ready for layup. The plastic can change shape a lot over even a little bit of time, and you'll get funny-shaped skis. You probably don't want someone else cutting out your bases, and then letting them sit for a while.

It will probably cost the same to just get an MDF template made that you can cut the bases out with a router.
