I store the epoxy in the house and bring it out when I'm ready to mix it,thay way I'm using warm epoxy.
The clip lights work great, plus you can use tarps to minimize the area you need to heat.
What brand of epoxy, and which hardener?
The epoxies I've worked with, West system and System Three, have different hardener options that work in different temperatures
1973 Corecraft canoe. A chopped fiberglass canoe made in my hometown of Bemidji Minnesota. Even when I was young and strong it was all I could do to carry it, it must have weighed nearly 100 lbs.
I was the most awful thing I ever loved.
It was given to me in the late eighties, I paddled it...
My first was the Schoolcraft River, a tributary to the Mississippi here in Northern Minnesota. I first paddled it in about 1989, and have paddled some part of it almost every year since then. It was also the river I first tried canoe poling on a couple of years ago.
Congratulations, it looks great! My wife and I are thinking about replacing our old Bell Northwind with a Northstar Seliga. My only concern has been my wish to occasionally use it solo for day trips. I'd love to hear how it works for you when you use it solo.
