It all begins about 7 years ago whiskey purchase I didn't really like afterwards and research lead into the purchase where three people cannot agree on like/dislike skis and their performance. Afterwords I keep asking myself why it's such a hostile to find perfect skis? Shortly after I discovered that it is possible to make skis myself and afterwords it's downhill from there lol
to quit while to acquire/build necessary tools/equipment and gain necessary skills.
While in the beginning this project was challenge if it possible to make to skis myself, shortly after it become new challenge not only to make skis but also use all American-made materials and AMERICAN MADE EQUIPMENT with locally grown, cut and milled wood for me to us in ski cores.
First and by far most significant piece of equipment made into my shop is custom-made production size press. This beast in my shop Inspiron me to continue. And finally about four years ago after all this trouble got my first pair skis out of the press. After three more months of waiting I got my first skis on the snow. Shortly after made more skis for myself and more lol for the following season I sold all of the skis I had and mouse ski only on mine
