Resin and hardener don't weigh the same so it is usually not a 1:1 mix by weight.

Don't stir with wood, it absorbs hardener more than resin which can be an issue with small batches.

Add resin to hardener, not vice versa.....why I'm not sure but System three's epoxy book makes a point of it.

stir 3 minutes and time it or you'll cheat
