About the same as they do right now, except in 1860 skis and poles were wood and the bindings were leather straps. The biggest change is in the bindings, which are made to release when a certain amount of force is exerted against them to keep you safe.

The oldest pair of skis were found in Hoting, Sweden and are estaimated to be about 5,000 years old by carbon dating.
Yes you can make skis, but it would be hard. You need all sorts of materials, machinery and expertise to make quality skis. All the big ski companies have scientists and designers to develop skis. But if you want i'm sure it wouldn't be too hard to make a good old fashion pair of wood skis. The bindings could be tricky though.In fact some ski companies just started with people like you who wanted to make skis. For example the company Line was started by Jason Levinthal in 1995. He made his first skis in his own garage.
Yes, but if you can afford either new skis or new bindings, get the new bindings because they'll keep you safer on the slopes.
The original price was $312.50
The worth of a pair of Harvey E. Dodds wooden skis will depend on the year and condition. A 1937 pair could be worth around $200.
