: Well I did some more yesterday and it cured faster. The temps in the garage
: were probably around 60-65, and Raka lists their times at around 77F, so
: it being a bit cooler wasn't helping. So I warmed everything up first and
: it set up faster. I left it in the cup a little longer too.

: Mixing thoroughly is something I definitely do. Got my bow bent lamination
: glued and planed down.. now just to sand it perfectly.. things are coming
: together!

: thanks

60 degrees shouldn't be a problem, might want to invest in some fast hardener as it speeds the cure rate in cooler weather.
