To take the 'math' out of the equation :
The square and tick mark method works quickly too:

^^+1 The square and tick mark method is so easy and works on any ski I dunno why anyone would mess with another method. If you get a thick enough square you have the ability to run it along the actual ski edge which will eliminate any issues with finding center off the topsheet on skis with slightly off topsheets or rounded tops (i.e. cap skis).
For next level pro mounts, put some notches in the square in several spots near the usual widths that u mount and it keeps the pencil locked in when you draw the line."timberridge is terminally vapid" -- a fortune cookie in Yueyang

Very observant. Those pedestals are left over from the cast conversion I just did. The only reason they are in the picture is because I needed the plastic afds as the pivots I was mounting on the Blizzard's came with grip walk afd's and I am using a alpine boot.

The question of all mounting questions....
100 or 115mm on a 108mm waisted ski? We don’t want arms as a 3rd edge am I right?

The origami method for fining the center line works very well, if done carefully. I usually do two marks for front binding, two for the back, and see if they all line up (and actually, I always do each one twice, just to make sure it's right). Make sure you mark on the ski, exactly where you put the paper, so you can get it in the same place after folding.

Next question (I started a thread for this,, but was advised to ditch it and post here):
I'm remounting some skis with a shop-mount, that used wood glue to seal the screws. I won't be reusing the old holes, so need to fill them. I usually use epoxy to fill the holes. But will the epoxy bind to the wood glue and form a solid seal? Or should I just go with plastic plugs?
BTW I don't want to enlarge the holes, as new ones will be pretty close to old (and in that case, will plastic plugs be structurally sound enough?).

Epoxy is fine, if you don't use some kind of filler in the holes its hard to get the air bubbles out of the hole
so you can either pound in the plastic plugs with or without epoxy OR I found BBQ skewers will fit perfectly in the holes
I don't think hard wood plugs or BBQ skewers or plastic plugs add anything structurally to a ski ... they just seal the holeLee Lau - xxx-er is the laziest Asian canuck I know

So I picked up a tyrolia Jrex plate to mount Attack2s and the holes are off from the heel holes. I have mounted STH, STH2 Pivots using their plates an never had an issue with them before.
Also is a flat heads width "normal" spacing on the heels of these?
