I've seen the snowboard benches, but snowboarding sucks, so I want to make ski benches.
The skis I can use are:
K2 MSL 200s
K2 MSL 190s
K2 GS Race 208s
K2 Merlin IV 188s
K2 four 188s
Dynastar VR17 200cm
I would prefer to use plans/methods that doesn't involve fucking up the ski (sawing/nailing/etc), in case anyone ever wants to put them on snow again.
Any thoughts, ideas, etc welcome. Here's some of the shit I've seen so far but they involve sawing the skis up.

Use skis only for the horizontal elements of the bench. You could attach the skis with some semi-perm epoxy.
Or just stop being a pussy and dump your Plake-era skinny ski fetish.

Look what else that seller has available -- maybe if you buy this, he'll throw in the skis: Originally Posted by Superstar Punani

Just remember to counter sink the screws or they grab you by the thighs or rip your pants.
