I don't use Araldite rapid as it's useless. I use the 10 minute stuff for tip overlays, nocks arrow plates and sticking in pegs (I allow it at least 30 minutes to go off reliably)<br />For patches I use Araldite Precision.<br />Note, in this cold weather most epoxies take longer to go off, best to put them somewhere warm to cure. If you are making wood dust/epoxy mixture, make it much drier than you think, as it seems to get wetter when it's packed in tight.<br />DerekDerekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07654835987876553254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5493681473159888383.post-54378289196296035402012-03-07T13:30:10.175+00:002012-03-07T13:30:10.175+00:00Hi Derek,

Just in case I should happen to come across anything similar...<br /><br />Cheers<br /><br />MattBrewdadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16497580288727908726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5493681473159888383.post-79459310045867909442012-03-06T19:50:43.134+00:002012-03-06T19:50:43.134+00:00very impressive!very impressive!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
