In Response To: Tools: Epoxy Scale (Malcolm Schweizer)

Scales are too high tech and I'm cheap.

I put the epoxy in squeeze bottles. For a small batch ... I mix the epoxy on a plastic lid or whatever. To measure the epoxy ... say for a 3 to 1 mix ... using a felt tip marker or whatever ... I draw a line 3 inches long ... and another line 1 inch long. Then I just meter out both beads of epoxy and mix away. Works fine ... never had a bad mix even with very small quantities.
