In Response To: How about them archives - answers (Doug S)

: I finally searched the archives for 2 things -

: 1) How to make measuring cups. I feel like the Raka epoxy pumps
: make way more epoxy than I'd like.

: 2) What to do in this case (scrape + acetone for removal)

I also have Raka epoxy,and what I did was mark the pumps with half inch marks the length of the stem.I tried it using 2 marks on hardener and 4 marks on resin,also tried 2 marks on hardener and 2 marks twice on resin and both ways worked fine.I did some tests with marked cups and the pumps were very consistent with the way they dispensed using different marks.
