PSA: Mount your own fucking skis.
Can anyone with both the BF stepped drill bit and the BF centering guide block confirm how “tight” the drill bit is to the block?
Was gonna use a local sourced F drill bit, but not loving the amount of play allowed it using the BF guide block. Might just order up the BF bit if tolerances are much tighter.

Had the same issue with the new gigarex. I used a drill bit that fit the hole tight in place of a punch then free drilled the hole with my screw hole bit. I just slightly tagged it with the big bit to mark it

Lay the tape down, find center in three spots and connect them all with a long ruler laying down a center line for the paper templates. Tape those puppy’s down and mark with a center punch.
Quick tip that I stumble across. Use more than one sheet or paper or card stock. The punches then “sit” in the center holes much easier if your using the same temple multiple times.
Oh, and this works well for finding the center:

Any ideas on hole conflicts between the Radical 2 and Alpinist? I want to take mine off for something lighter. I've had a play around with some templates, and seems could be problems with the toes, although heels should work nicely. Same bsl.

Beauty looking setup! Looks like tectons on a veneer rx? Or is that an mvp? Wondering how that graphic would look in veneer. Id like to eventually replace my old stock gpo with a heavy core veneer in the od graphic or maybe that new graphic now

Combination square. You’d have buy two and combine them. Sweet idea

This has probably come up already in this thread, but has anybody made a basic centering jig to mark the center line? Seems like this would work great.
To avoid the influence of sidecut, you could just make 2 passes with the jig, flipping the direction...my guess is the 2 lines would be essentially on top of each other.
(If it isnt obvious how you use the jig, 50 seconds into this video shows an example: https://youtu.be/Mfa9bhjNAAE)

Yes. I've been working on this for a while. I'm ironing out a couple design tweaks and CNC issues for production and should have more ready within a week:
Find your ski center in seconds:
- Place the SkiScribe diagonally on the top of the ski with the pegs against the edges in front of the binding toe piece.
- Run the SkiScribe down the edge or make tick marks with a SHARP pencil in the center holder creating a line matching the ski's contour.
- Rotate the SkiScribe and repeat on the other edge.
- Repeat behind the binding heel piece.
- Double check Ski Edge to closest line on each side for a match. Adjust if necessary.
- Split the difference between the two lines and mark the center in front & rear locations.
- Draw a centerline with a straight edge.
- Place binding template or jig on ceter line and Boot Sole Center (BSL)
The center hole I'm considering is 5/16"/8mm all the way through instead of the 2mm one shown. This is larger than a pencil diameter and wrapping tape around a pencil will remove slop.
It can also be used to align the tap vertically (especially a Snoli Threadcutter). Since SkiScribe is made out of wood DO NOT use it as a drill guide.
As an aside, it also works OK as a true bar.
There are two 'rulers' laser etched into the sides. One is the same as the SlideWright Centering Ruler Sticker. The other is a new ruler to measure from the Ski Edge to the Center. The two options provide unlimited uses, including the following:
- The Centering Ruler can quickly ballpark ski width and center relative to the ski edges at any given changing width down the ski. This can give quick reference for centerline location.
- Measure center between two screw holes and their layout
- Measure screw lengths directly or installed length from top of binding
- Locate the center of odd shape or linear items up to 140mm/5 1/2"
- A handy tool for countless uses beyond skis
