    I'm planning on being there too Rob. Not sure what I'll be bringing to work on, probably my Z-boat but that could change.

    30min is ok although I wonder why he insisted, Maybe something to do with the drying properties, anyone chime in if you know the answer.

    He said it would bond the fiberglass way, way better then any of the other, shorter time epoxies. He asked me what i was building and i told him, graf spee for rc warships. He said 2 things seperately. 1) Very cool, i have a video of nats over there, and 2) So i guess it wont be very detailed.
