Ski Press in New England

Post by mel220 »

Im currently doing a science research project on building skis with bamboo cores. Does anyone in the area of New England, especially Connecticut have a ski press already made? Or is there someone who could help me with this project?

I can't help you out... I'm in Vancouver, BC. but I'd really like to know whatever you find. What specifically are you researching about bamboo cores?

I live in Reading Pa. It's about 2 hours from New York city. I have no doubt that there is a press closer to you. If noone will give you a hand I will
If at first you don't succeed, try try again.
