OhD Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 Might save me having to get a custom 30cm-wide board built to keep from booting out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lafcadio Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 From the second and third photos in the original post, it appears that the entire plate is angled using the the interface to the TD3 base and the soft boot bindings are mounted at a 0 degree angle relative to the plates. Question #1: are the angle indicators on the TD3 center disk visible with the plate mounted on top? From the photos it appears they are not and the angles must be guestimated. Question #2: any reason to mount the soft boot bindings angled on top of the plates? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carvingchef Posted January 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 From the second and third photos in the original post, it appears that the entire plate is angled using the the interface to the TD3 base and the soft boot bindings are mounted at a 0 degree angle relative to the plates.that's correct, you can use the TD3 base or the TD2 base but i suggest using the TD3 base if you have itQuestion #1: are the angle indicators on the TD3 center disk visible with the plate mounted on top? From the photos it appears they are not and the angles must be guestimated.if you look at the very first picture you can see a long cut out right in the middle of the plates and a small cut out just under, the small cut out is the window that shows the angle marks engraved on the center disc (just like on TD2 bindings)Question #2: any reason to mount the soft boot bindings angled on top of the plates? i cant think of any good reason to want to do that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueB Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 i cant think of any good reason to want to do that Quick microadjustment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carvingchef Posted January 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 yeah but if you start moving the bindings more than 3 or 4 degrees the base of the binding will start going outside of the plate (at least at 2 opposite corners) and you might not get the full benefit of the plates in doing so anybody can do what they want, i personally wouldn't do that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarterPrice Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 Hey Fin, where can I buy some of these for my brother? Thank you, CP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fin Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 Sorry everyone, these have been pushed back with the Boiler Plate taking off like it has. I have the material to make these just need to find some open time on the machines. Most likely sometime after SES. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fin Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 Sorry for the delay, for some reason I was not subscribed to this I am SO sorry to report that this will not be happening this season. Two reasons: - Boiler Plate Took off big time and sucked up all my free time - We just ran out of 3 deg TD3 Cant Disks so no point in these right now I actually bought the material and it even made it to the side of the mill that will be cutting them. But just did not get to it. The interest is high so plan to cut them this summer as well as make a boat load of Cants to co with them. So goal is to have them read to go at start of next season. I know, I am lame and deserve a beating with a 158 BX board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miltie Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 Hey Fin, Hope your summer is going well and you are on top of the seasonal production rush. Any update on the Soft Binding Adapter Plates? :) Thanks in advance!! Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fin Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 Yep, they are still a go. Have plenty of the cants and center disks now. And still have the material from last year to make the adapter plate itself. So no excuse. Probably see late Fall to early winter. Will announce on site as well as a newsletter so make sure you are signed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fin Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 One million dollars, buwhahahhahahahah! Actually, no pricing yet, will have that when becomes available. But it will be more than a standard "TD3 2nd Board Kit" as it contains all those parts plus the adapter plates themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeho730 Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 Hi fin, Will the final product be identical to the photos we've seen before? Are you going to shave some part to save some weight? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
