I've read some of the threads here, which are great, but learned a few more things from this.

Agreed. Well documented piece. And the final pics of the repair demonstrate the procedure's validity.

This procedure or a variation of it works very well. Over the winter I probably replaced a combined total of 4 feet of edge on various ski and boards...but never mine......Bro Model's and Explosives don't sucumb to rocks in the same way.

I bet a fair amount of those were K2's, huh?

I've done this a few times too, back in my shop rat days.

They are old wood core Salomon X-Screams...

I tried to do almost the same as this on my Rossi XXX, but they did not want to hold together after....

Few skis allow reattachment of the edge into a solid core. Many edge's teeth have only sidewall above them, so the volant edge substitution has a better chance of extending to wood. The main issue about resting edge teeth on the wood is the 1/2 mm of milling that has to be done along the sides of the core to accomodate the edge teeth.
