For whoever tunes their skis here...

What is the best set of clamps for skis/snowboards? Also, where's a good site to get instructional DVDs and tools?

Pretty good videos on there to do a good tune. I bought my vices off ebay from the seller tools4boards, I got them for $36 plus shipping and they work for both boards and skis which I needed. They did take about a week for shipping since it came from canada and he used some weird shipping company, but you cant beat the price for a good set of vices.

This should be the link to the auction I won them on.

And I built a bench myself, I used two 4'x12" pieces of pine shelving side by side for the top and built a base and legs from 3 8' 2x4's, cost less than $15 in materials.

Excellent price! Usually a vise like that will for at least $100. I have a similiar setup, works really good. Except this year got lazy and decided to go for a season tune at a ski shop :)
