| Does anyone know of the best place to get large amounts (I'm talking personal use here, so I don't wan enough to stock a store) of epoxy putty? Preferably not the one that smells of rotting fish and cat-turds. | |

| If I may add my 2 cents: Do yourself a favour and do not buy green stuff that comes in 2-lane bubble-gum style rolled up coil. The problem with this is that the hardener (blue) and the yellow compound are in constant contact with each other. Thus, over time, it will harden/cure along the middle line where both compounds are in contact. This will either leave you with very annoying little clumps when you knead the GS or, if you cut out the middle every time you want to convert, will leave you frustrated with the amount of GS/time you are wasting. I strongly recommend you buy GS where both compounds come in separate tubes/bags/etc... _________________ | |

| Didn't think of that, Tom. Thanks! I remember when I got some plumber's epoxy once, BIG MISTAKE!! It cam in one sousage with the hardener in the middle (so a huge contact area) and it STANK! | |

| Ahh man, I wish you've come up earlier with that image, Tom! Just bought one of those 36" 'bubblegum rolls' at this place.. Ahh well, looks like I have to sculpt more often then! Thanks for the image anyway, I've noticed this problem as well with my 4 year old GS strip from GW! Cheers! | |
