I have a surplus of skis & bindings, but cant find any shops willing to sell me an extra mount, if anyone knows a shop thats looking to get rid of there old Jig, that'd be super, or if you have one let me know, I'm way too lazy to do it by hand, and dont want to deal with paying to mount 6 skis.
hit me back

If you know the people who work at the shop, they will do it for free, or if you know what you are doing, they might let you do it for freezles.

thats the main issue, my friend at my ski shop in Wisconsin moved away to telluride, and the ski shop is under new management, that are pretty snobby/ know less about mounting bindings then I do, I suppose i can go try to let me have my 10 minutes with the Jig, but it'd be easier having one in my basement.
I've been trained, know what im doing, and have all the proper equipement other then the Jig

Just ask on TGR or at your local shop for someone to have you a template...set the jig to your BSL and drill and peice of plastic/metal/whatever you have to use...and then lay that up on the ski and do it.

My bad...ask Marsh on TGR, I think he's got a sally jig and would do it for you.

My friend (used to work at a shop) is getting me an old Axium jig that accomodates the FKS pattern, so I can mount my Ar6's.

You could just slap the bindings on the ski, put a little super glue on to hold them together and then put them in a drill press.

I know about 10 people looking for a solly jib or a look pre-2004 jig. Willing to pay top dollar.

My shop might have an old look Pivot (Rossi Axial) jig we could sell... I'd have to check on the condition as it has been abused a bit. Works fine last time I checked though (when I mounted my TMs). If my shop has a newer pivot jig that we can still use, then I wouldn't mind selling this old jig.
All times are Eastern (-5)
