Would you have time to explain what you're going for with the pneumatic rams you added to your presses. Thanks

Pretty basic idea actually. Our cores now run into the tips of our skis. Before we just had tipspacer up there, but that is way more susceptible to having tips snap. So this year we've made it so the cores now run into the tips.

I was having the similar problem (see Edge fall/fail topic) using full wood cores. I like the way you solved the problem!

Thanks Iggy...we temporarily increased the radius in the tip blocks to compensate for the tip non-compliance...that piston ROCKS! Thanks so much for sharing!

Not sure, maybe a pair of HD pliers or HD dikes, looks like he's doing some final bending/fitting of the edges.

I believe it is some sort of husky nail puller we got at home depot. Works ok in the right situation, though we don't use it all that much, so sort of funny that it was included in the video.

Pretty stoked to go from building in my single car garage just a few years ago (summer of 2008)....

To getting our 2011/2012 Caylor selected as one of Powder's Skier's Choice Draft picks...

And our 2011/2012 Wrenegade picked as one of Freeskier's Editor's Choice.

Been a crazy few years, and it is even crazier to go back and look at some of these old photos. Right now it looks like we are moving into a new production factory around December that is going to triple our available warehouse space, and we are working on a number of new production tools and ski designs that we are all very excited for.

To everyone on here that helps me along the way, much thanks.

Well done Iggy
I got my copy in the mail yesterday and was happy to see the Caylor in the draft picks.
Keep up the good work
