Father/Daughter project. Housewarming gift for her friend. Only used drill press to drill holes in Skis. Picked up the skis at a surplus store for $2 pr. Hoping it will be durable in weather.

That is a pretty slick idea! Even keeps your butt from sliding off the end ....

That is way creative. I could see these replicated in appearance in lots of settings, around ski lodges, near ski lifts, and points in between to create 'connections'.

Maybe not a lot of Shopsmith involved, but it sure has creativity and workmanship all over it. Neat idea that I am sure you had a blast doing.
