Not sure if this is the right category for this, but it is commercial.
I picked up three pair last week and meant to post but forgot.

Pretty good deal!
definitely a better deal than the p12 turntables I bought last week for $42 on the bay. Crappy cel phone pic made them look like they were in good shape :evil: Still probably worth $42.

You don't even have a legit signature, nothing to reveal who you are and what you do...

Best of luck to you. (uneva)

These are excellent bindings. I bought six sets of the Look PX Demo bindings over the past few years, some with 100mm brakes, some with 120mm. I made a drill jig so I can mount them myself. So far, so good. Never had a binding failure on a home-made ski. The best thing is the ease of which boot adjustments can be made, on the mountain with zero tools. Easy to swap skis with your buddy.

Thanks for posting, I've been wanting another set.

Here is a good resource website to help with release settings:

Hi Sam,

Yes, your post is good here. We created this category because we felt a need for it. Also, it helps to better organize the forum.

Didn't see the point of starting a new thread.
Found this, contacted them they said they have a few.

So here again, grindrites for sale.

Guess they must be getting low or something.
When I posted the grindrite link above they were just under $3k
Now they've gone up $500.
Glad I ordered one when I did, got it shipped for less than the new price.
Oh by the way did I mention I bought a grindrite? 8)

Don't really need a cnc at this stage but have been looking for a base grinder for a while.
Getting bases done has become a bit of a pain these days.
the first couple years my bud at the guides hut would do them after hours for beer. After a while the novelty wore off and he's not interested anymore.
Last year my buddy Matt at straight line did them for beer but at the time didn't really know what he was getting himself into, so seems hesitant this year.

The other ski shops in town will run them a couple passes for $35-40 but any more than that they want more.
So I have been hand sanding and filing and sanding and filing to try to get them kinda flat/cleaned up, so I can get them done for cheaper.
I've got 4 pair that need bases done at this point and a couple more on the way so a grinder was definitely the way to go.

It is a bit of an expense but I think will pay for itself.
There's a couple other builders in town so may be able to pay it off that way!
Just hope they are in as good a shape as they look.

Good deal. I'll save that site. Here's another site I've been using for bindings. They also have tons of other stuff.
www.levelninesports.com

You can get extra plates too. I got 2 sets of binding and 7 sets of plates. Easy to swap from 1 ski to another.
