Thread: Fast drying gap filler type glue

Interesting......I have a red box burl I could use this on.

Before hollowing I need to fill these gaps

Why

the finished piece should look quite interesting with those "gaps"


If they must be filled, I think you will need to us a low viscosity epoxy filler that is both tintable and stable under moderate heat.

yeah i prefer the gaps but i think it will fall to pieces. Maybe I should gently hollow it and see how it goes. I would just hate to cross that point of no return

I heard ya! I turned it quite thick and I rather like it. When I finish the finish I'll pic it up

and here it is without the gaps filled!
