Doug Blackburn has a good idea in using a digital scale to get accuratemeasurements when mixing epoxy. Those using T-88 should remember,however, that while the correct resin-to-hardener proportion is 1:1 byvolume, it is 1:0.83 by weight.Ted Tuckerman________________________________________________________________________________

Doug:The T-88 resin is a bit heavier (has a higher specific gravity.) For moreinfo, you can view the technical data sheet and Material Safety Data Sheet(MSDS) at the manufacturer's web site: www.systemthree.comTed----- Original Message -----
