: Scott, can you elaborate a bit on how you load those syringes? With/without
: needles? Messy? I'm getting a system of that going now, and working out
: the kinks. Thx!
First of all you could use larger syringes, than the ones in the pic, and no they don't have needles on them of any kind. I picked up a case of 6cc at a local farmers coop, but for this you only need 2, one for the resin and one for the hardener. Cut the top of the catsup/mustard bottles so that the syringe fits inside completely, but fairly snug. You can tip the whole thing upside down and begin to pull on the syringe plunger to the desired measurement, then while the syringe is still in the bottle, tip it back up and set it down, pull the syringe out of the top and squirt it into a mixing cup. Then do the same with the hardener, although half as much (for 2:1 epoxies). This is certainly not my idea, I think Rehd had something to do with it, but is a very simple and clean method for those small projects. Just another one of those fine ideas you get from this site.
