I'll need to circle back again and clean up a template if it'll work, but this is what I have for Warden demo layouts:

We live in sort of a 'basin' formed by foothills/mountains & trees on all sides. Roughly 3/4 mile radius. Especially early morning and nights and often there is silence and zero light pollution.

With a 5/16” shaft and 1/4” tip, the shoulder is minimal. It’s best to use a stop, with either the stepped bit or straight 1/4” bit.

I wasn’t sure (nor looked yet) whether not the Space X was used to deploy the Starlink satellites or they used a different one.

(FTR, Jon sold Binding Freedom quite a while ago to SVST.)
Can you get your hands on either demo binding to trace hole, scan the bottoms or both? Or shoot a pic of them with a tape measure? If you...

Are the Starlink rockets similar to the Space X?
Bummer. We were kicking around catching it next week but sounds like too much of a shit show any more.

I’d try the Dremel cutoff wheel and/or see if I could drive the tip of an awl under a corner.

Maybe a good time for wine tasting and stories from John at Sutcliffe’s. Give a shout if coming through Durango.

Apparently in Europe (Germany?) there is an honor system where they have underground beer coolers where you can grab one on the trail and leave payment:

I was considering throwing in a felt shim to reduce the heat loss on those real cold days.
Can you drill a small diameter hole and get a screw into the metal?

After DST kicked in Telluride used to open a 10AM & shut down 4:30-5pm, but stopped doing it because it affected the worker's schedule relative to their partner's and kid's schedules, among other...

Renoun Atlas for a fun carver that is versatile in bumps, some crud & powder too. The Vibe Stop is real and stiffens with vibration. They've been my go-tos due to low snow year but still fun for...

Just up valley from this slide I was the last of three traversing across the slope (above the one that killed that Opus Hut group below the road a few years ago) after skiing from a climb up to Marge...
Thanks for posting. Lots of carnage and death in that couple/few square miles in the past decade and beyond. If it's the path, I'm thinking that is, in 2019 after the big winter the slide went across...
Generally this, but check them with a true bar to at least 'get to know' their profile and see what you feel while skiing. I'd definitely remove existing wax and run through base prep & WOTD cycles...
Yes and use your boots to verify alignment. I redrilled some ION holes for inserts and had one off a skootch. By sequencing the tightening I used the other three holes to align the wonky one. Worked...
I thought that for a minute yesterday, but after tightening the top buckles and strap, I did not feel it again. I double checked today and do not feel any play. Do you by hand?
Just noticed “Northern Exposure” is finally available on Prime. Apparently, for a looooong time there were contractual conflicts or something keeping it from being streamed.

Cool. One of my fondest memories was at the end of our 3 (+/-) week trek, we stayed at a ‘motel’ in a village which had the first road we’d seen since setting out. There was a tv and we had a fun...

Perfect. Always a good reality check.
Search 'SkiVisions' by post and the TGR search engine actually finds pertinent posts. Who'd a thunk it?

That & lack of simple consideration & common courtesies are right up there.

RE shims, screws, inserts & accurate measuring, it seems like a good idea to go ahead and install inserts if you are going to be trying various shims and heights to get things dialed. M5 machine...

If you strike out, check out this thread. Scan, trace or take images of the bottoms, along with some measurements and I can draw one up.

The blue is the current heel. The black is from the axial/pivot (not axial2/pivot) template you could not load
@altabrig,
It looks like the current hole layout to me. The toe layout overall the older template is off by a bit. The heels quite a bit. You can measure the hole layout to confirm.
