Epoxy

 

First glue joint. The floor panels were supplied with 'puzzle joints' and were very easy to glue up, and no alignment was needed (or possible).

I did some calculations on the epoxy. One squirt of resin was 35g, and one of hardener was 15g, so it wasn't quite right (should have been 16g of hardener). I might get a small set of scales for the workshop.

I thickened the epoxy with 5g of cab-o-sil, and used 30g of this in this first joint - the remainder will sit in the bottom of the yoghurt pot (I've been saving these) until it sets (fingers crossed...). I will give it 24 hours.

For the next gluing session I will do more panels at the same time to reduce waste.
