gluing up my limbs how much is too much?

[Tim Finley]

You cant use too much epoxy.

Agree with Tim.  "Too much" is just extra squeeze out to deal with but as you go along you get an idea of how much is just right.

Mighty hard to put in later if you don't get nuff...

I can vouch for that, having done it.

"how much is too much?"............  try a roller,  I'm gonna start using a small roller,  the brush is slow and does not apply it evenly.

As a former painter, I take umbrage with that statement

I have glued up hundreds and thousands of board feet of material in Cabinet shops..  etc..  mind you it was using TB3 if that makes a difference.  And hands down the roller prevailed.

Oh come on now…..…..  disagree or agree,  hard to read between the lines when not face to face.

My first comment was tongue in cheek and I've had more than my share of contention lately, so I will politely decline your offer

It's not TB3 though.  Rollers, brushes?  Just complicating a simple process.   Too many scraps of lams laying around for a.... ahmmm... errr...frugal person like me to sacrifice a  buck and a quarter on a special tool.

I realize that now,  half asleep half the time.   So ya TB3 is a different animal kind of off topic on my behalf.

This place would be kinda boring without the occasional off topic.

Oh yeh, just to be sure when I mentioned a wall paper roller I mean a seem roller  2" wide, just to even the Smooth On out after putting it on with a flex piece of scrap, makes it easy for me to make sure surface is totally wet and even rather than smearing it all on with a piece of scrap and me making a mess.
