: Well did something stupid and broke my yak. Well not too bad. I have crushed
: about 6 inches of my bow on the lower edge. It was just deep enough to go
: through the wood but not the inner layer of glass. I am planning to plane
: down through the damage and build back up using walnut. Here is my
: dilemma. I have RAKA no blush epoxy this takes about 12 hrs to set well. I
: want to build up almost 2 inches of walnut. At 1/8 inch thick this will
: take at least 8 days if I use the RAKA epoxy. If I use 5 min. epoxy the
: laminating will take less than one day. Then there is option 3 witch is
: buying epoxy just for the laminating.

: Now having said that why would I not want to use the 5 min. epoxy?

: Sage.

: P.S. My mother-in-law will be staying with me for 3 weeks. I would like to
: get as much paddling time as possible during this time.

The man at Hoby Shack told me 5 minute is not water proof, so I used the 30 min with 2 or so minutes of heat gun when mixing. It made it amost as fast as 5 min.
