This method is really easy, accurate and usable with any resin, sealer, or structural adhesive. Try getting Hysol through your sticky-stuff dispenser! You do, in fact, need to have a small mouth bottle to dispense the goop into your mixing cup. It's nothing but frustration to pour it out of a metal one-gallon can. I've been using the Jeffco with a 25:100 by weight mixture. I can do that math in my head (let's see ... 40 grams of resin means 10 grams of hardener...) The Shell-TETA system was harder with an 18.5 to 100 ratio (or something like that) -- I had to have a calculator by the scale. Same goes for Hysol with it's oddball mixture ratio. I wasn't as smart as Steve -- I didn't have the sheet of Saran Wrap over my scale and I now have a sticky, messy scale ... but it still works! - Rob Wolf >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> LML website: http://members.olsusa.com/mkaye/maillist.html LML Builders' Bookstore: http://www.buildersbooks.com/lancair Please remember that purchases from the Builders' Bookstore assist with the management of the LML.
