So I got this chalice frag a few months ago. Did not think it was going to make it but as you can see it is looking much better in the second photo. I would like to build up around the perimeter to allow it to make a nice transition rather than a steep dropoff. I thought about just using superglue but can anyone suggest something better? Thanks!

+1 on the epoxy and please do this. It will make it look way better as it grows out rather than having a big hump in the middle. I've started doing this with acans also to help them out. My echinata has grown nicely just like a chalice that way.
