Ski production equipement for sale - what's the story?

[andjules]

I subscribed to Shnitz on Facebook a while ago (http://www.facebook.com/holyschnitz)... he recently posted about molds, a pneumatic press, heat controllers, large scale dye sub printer & other equipment for sale, clearly set up for slalom ski production. $75k for the lot, apparently located in Missouri.

 

So,

a) if you've always dreamt of making your own skis - and have $75k to spare - here's your chance;

and

b) does anyone know the story here? Did someone recently stop making skis/go out-of-business/start outsourcing or contracting?

I saw that as well. He said that you could make HO skis out of it? I was not sure what that was all about or how he got his hands on the equipment.

I think I know but I'm not going to speculate on the matter. It is interesting and tempting!

If you're not going to speculate & start rumors, can we find someone who will? ;-)
