<DIV>Didn't the master say that is not good idea to use alcohol to thin
epoxy? I could be wrong since my memory is bad. Anyone
remember? </DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Well folks,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Here is a preliminary finding...Considering the
fact that I probably skewed the results by stirring the mixture to keep it
incorporated, and the 5 minute epoxy mixture I used has only been curing for
about 60 minutes, I found no detectable loss of weight on a Pelouze PS20DL
digital postal scale. I will try to attach a pic of the weight of the
cup, stir stick and mixture. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The cup and stick weigh .5 oz, with the
remainder being the mixture. One thing you will see is that stirring
the mixture makes a gelatinous mess...</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>OK, I'll take a stab. After the
alcohol evaporates you would have the same mass or weight of epoxy that
you started with. AND to reiterate what I learned from the Master
Fowler, thinning epoxy, if I remember right, changes the molecular
structure weakening the mixture. It will also cause the epoxy to
shrink over time. BTDT.</FONT></DIV>

it weighs and tell me why.</FONT></DIV>
