I use prokote if its not warm enough it won't cure 100%. Its a great epoxy but it takes forever to cure. I would say a day and a half in good temp.

I have had good luck with Cp but lately it hasn't gone good. Could it be cause the Cp is getting old? I am using color lock. Can I thin it a bit for better Penetration. So frustrating this is the second strip down.

I am doing 13 ft Centerpin rods Tom so I really like to take my time cause , I have a lot going on. Bill I really struggle with light build on the finishing lines. High build stays where I put it, I find the high build is easier to get smooth results for me. I like to dry at 9 rpm and apply at 18rpm.
Forum: rodboard

Does a high build epoxy exist that has good bubble release and long pot life. I use Flex Coat High Build love the characteristics of the epoxy but, the pot life @#$%& and the bubble release isn't the greatest. Thank you. Ps I hate light builds or even medium ones.

Have a question about the minima4 guides, do you find they coil mono faster and make the mono rough feeling. Also i have the ss304 in chrome and black the number 6 guides seem like one side of the ring is sharp and one is rounded anyone see this thanks
Forum: rodboard

How long has it been drying for maybe you have to mix it better and equal parts. Just apply over top you will be fine
Forum: rodboard

That is great news, I am going to make the drive from Toronto, Canada to check it out.
Forum: rodboard

Thanks everyone for the great info. i will give it a try
Forum: rodboard

Hi everyone just needed some suggestions with finish. I have been using tape on the ring side anyone have any other idea's when it comes to putting the finish on at high speed. I use cp on the wraps, So no epoxy build's up in front of the guide foot.
Forum: rodboard

It also makes me feel a little better about the guide cutting into the blank. Its like a cushion between the blank and the guide.
Forum: rodboard

Hi brad thank you, I ordered the new stuff from bingham. It's milky and watery, the stuff I have is like a clear gel. I felt the new stuff didn't perform as well
Forum: rodboard

I love it, I used tape a few times and found the guide foot adhesive rocks. You only need a bit and you can move the guides after for adjustment.
Forum: rodboard

Thank you, I have always wanted to try solvent based, but worried the feet are going to crack
Forum: rodboard

Just a question, I Have some old 811 and I love it. I tied the flexcoat and it dries darker then the 811. Anyone no some other cp's that keep the thread close like the 811. Not a solvent based if possible.
Forum: rodboard

Awesome guys lot's of great Idea really appriciate it.
Forum: rodboard

Thanks guys, The only issue i have is, i have to use a really thin wood to make the table or the bit won't stick out far enough. Can i move the bit out of the chuck a bit more, or will it affect the perfomance.

Hi everyone, Recently purchased a bull nose bit to mortise reel seats. I have just a plain plunger router. I am trying to figure out a jig to use without having to go out and get a router table. Any suggestion or even pictures of some setup's. Thank you in advance
