You could also try Easy Composites - they do low viscosity infusion resins with a variety of timed hardeners, which I've used for vacuum infusion projects - the resin needs to be thin for that as you...

The epoxy came today, only ordered it yesterday...nice!! Anyway, got it out of the box and gave it a shake to see how viscous it was. Not too bad and should pour quite nicely. I'm going to...

A 5mm layer of epoxy isn't going to generate enough heat to warm up a big chunk of metal far enough to generate any problems. Don't wait too long before pouring it though as it will generate heat in...

I've used a fair bit of epoxy (usually thickened, though) for various boat repairs in the past and I can confirm that it is exothermic from personal experience. Fine in a wide, shallow, container but...

Are you going to make a moat between the two rails so that they will be both at the same level, also the epoxy will rise up at the edges so make sure you have a wide enough flat plane to mount the...

Eddy You might have seen this before there is no problem with the thickness of the epoxy Jonathan and I have used it I think Dean uses some sort of epoxy putty which is stiffer, he has explained...

Eddy - I am pretty sure the description for the Supermario-au seller was that the cutters were coming form China - will doublecheck....

Yep - definitely China but also some from the same shop...

Your frame is looking great Eddy. Well done, you now seem to be well on your way to having a very nice and well thought out machine. G.

I agree, that is a very nice looking frame, in fact this is turning out to be one of the best build threads. The earlier posts discussing the electrical side of the build have been really useful and...

Very nice Eddy

That is looking like one very sturdy frame. Very nice

Hi, I use Kingspan or a copy at least. The freezer density K-span is about the same density as blue modelling styrene. I tend not to use is as I found the freezer density foam board had air particles...

Hi Eddycurrent

I am very happy with Aspire - try the demo version, you can only output Gcode for some prebuilt examples but apart from
that its fully functional, seems to be a good responsive...

Hi Eddy,

Prices are including all applicable taxes etc. So all the prices listed are those that you pay, no hidden costs.

Obviously postage would have to be added where applicable (due to...

Hi Eddy,

Yes, I actually forgot to mention that discounts are available. They will depend on the items required and how many but I will certainly do my best. I do the same for the guys over at...

Eddy, If you haven't already seen it, i'd recommend having a look at the 'Auto Squaring' ESS thread on Warp9 (registration req'd as m_c mentioned above): Forum

The new beta plugin for the ESS on...

Looks like SketchUp on steroids!

The foamex is a relatively strong material when supported. It's lightweight which is why it's used for shop signs ect I used a scrap piece to just scratch the surface when doing jobs, to let me see...
