From your "dough" description, it sounds like the stuff you use is fairly thick. Have you experimented with key hole application to test how securely the epoxy bonds with the wood? Is there any chance the epoxy might fall out when key moisture changes significantly? I'd sure hate to find these things falling out at some point in the future. Your method sure seems fast though - certainly worth a try - I tend to build a tank sometimes when a little scooter would do just fine.... :-(</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Terry Farrell</FONT></DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #000000 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px"> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"> </DIV> <DIV style="PADDING-RIGHT: 5px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #000000 3px solid; PADDING-TOP: 5px"> <DIV align=left>Sculpwood Epoxy Putty from System Three is a two part lightweight filled epoxy dough.It sands, drills and cuts nicely.
