they do make wide jigs, but a lot of shops may not have them. even in Mammoth, which is somewhere that seems like they would be mounting a lot of fat skis, they had to freehand my Made'Ns. (Maybe it's just because I went to P3.)

Get 4" wide strip of plexi. Scribe center line on it - in the center 
Put boot in jig and adjust to boot size.
Clamp jig to plexi with short section of 2X4 underneath just like a ski.
Drill
Mesaure with mm ruler and mark vertical and horizontal centers on ski with pencil
clamp plexi down centered on ski
drill ski using template as guide
elmer's glue
screw down clamps
go ski
