: What's the deal with epoxy? Any recommendations on the cheapest epoxy that's
: still of good quality? Is thickener necessary? The link below recommends
: using Cab-O-Sil for scarfing...

I use chopped fiber for thickening structural joints and use fumed silica (Cab-O-Sil) for fillets and on wear strips.

I use Raka epoxy.
