Default Looking for old wooden water skis

The Mrs.'s wants to do a project that requires several wooden water skis. So, we're looking for old, worn-out wooden skis. If you've got some just taking up space in your shed, please let us know what you want for them (cheap is good; free is better! ) Condition of the skis, bindings, or fins doesn't matter.

thanks.

She wants to build (or more likely have me build) outdoor furniture for the lake house using wooden waterskis.

Buck, glad you responded. We talked last year about improving the suspension on an excursion for trailering. You suggested a rear anti-sway bar, which I've yet to order from you. Will it work with air bags, or will they fight for the same space on the axle? (Looks like I just stole my own thread!!!)

Sounds like a good idea. I thought you were trying to save $$ on a privacy fence for the house or something.

I think my brother and I are going to fight over ours. When I get a house I want to hang them and other old sports stuff on the wall of a cheezy basement bar. But I like the furniture idea

Chart,

I just now saw the rest of your post. Sorry.

I would be surprised if they interfered with each other. On the other hand, I've never had a customer do both. I'm kinda shootin blind on this one. I can call them about it though.

K, back on topic now.
