[QUOTE="Vaughng, post: 1949543, member: 114076"] I have made my own Just normal epoxy I bought powdered stainless steel and filler called Carbosil, when this stuff sets up it is hard as a rock a blow with a hammer in my steel bench did not significantly marr it or bust it. Of course you can modify the consistency by using stiffer grades of epoxy. Its just that it is handy for me to use as I do not have to keep a jar of Devcon as I use epoxy all the time. I really think it is the carbosil that makes it so hard I think this stuff would dull milling cutters rapidly. With these additives I Believe it is harder and tougher than Devcon. There is no special mixing apart from getting the amounts of epoxy right just thicken to what you think is a desired consistency the Carbosil takes some mixing in to the epoxy The disadvantages with this and all steel epoxies is the inability to colour to a timber tone , I think Next lot of epoxy I purchase I will get a stiffer Blend, Vaughn G [/QUOTE]
