>Now a building question. I need to encapsulate the ash in epoxy, what is the right mixture for thinning epoxy so I can brush it on? As you can tell, it's been a while since I worked with wood:-)
Dana Overall ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Dana, What works for me is to thin the epoxy with acetone. Mix the A & B parts according to manufactures directions. Add a little acetone at a time and stir it in gently so as not to get to much air mixed in. A varnish consistancy is what you are looking for. When you paint it on, the acetone will penetrate the wood fibers and carry the epoxy with it. As the epoxy cures, the acetone will evaporate. Do use rubber gloves and eye protection. Make sure you have lots of ventilation. Sid Wood Tri-gear KR-2 N6242 Mechanicsville, MD, USA smw...@md.metrocast.net
