I have had the opportunity to do a lot of cross country lately. .
I don't know if this has been shown on the KRnet or not. I saw this ad

Got mine today.
They are shipped to Mississauga and then sent throughout Canada from there

Look in the engine bilge of most larger boats and you will find a self

I use West System on most of my projects exclusively, as they are marine
related and the boat store is a 1 mile away. However, what you state about
the West is true and now that the Canadian Aircraft Spruce is only a 1/2
hour away I will try some EZ and T-88.
How do you
I've had mine for years and still often re-read some of the work in them - a
good collection to have.
IF YOU ARE CANADIAN try and have EAA ship them USPS as the outfit they use
will have an additional $38
'brokerage fee' payable upon receiving. Go for it!
