Hey Guys
I'm looking to start making a pair of skis and I wanted to know if there was anyone in Aberdeen or even Scotland that currently make their own skis or would be willing to have a go with me.
As for the ski press...I am looking at making a very basic press and was wondering if once I have made the base and the top it would be possible to just use a series of ratchet straps to apply the pressure to the ski or is this too simple?
Thanks,
Dave

ratchet straps might be hard to get the pressure distributed evenly.
but you could use bags made of cordura which shouldn't be hard to come by (i'll be getting mine from montucky madman from this great forum).
have a look at this thread to get the idea: http://www.skibuilders.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1820
