Okay, so let it sit together in place for a while, how long?Takes a while to set up. Get a roll of kite string and use it to tie the pieces in place.
Probably will vary on thickness of epoxy. I wouldn't skimp on it though. I feel like snails moonlight as bull dozers.Okay, so let it sit together in place for a while, how long?
I am using a two part, no accelerator lDo you have accelerator to spray on the epoxy?
I used a whole ton and now I'm letting it sit, I really only need 2 rocks heldIs that the stuff that is 2 part? What I did is use the set it and prop up the rock so they stay and let it sit for 1/2 hour.
Okay, its not a whole ton and the rocks I'm using are heavy, its just the two stacked on each side, also gonna put out some small over hangsIf that's the stuff off of Amazon for 2 tubs for $10. I would kind of wrap it around the joints and let them sit. While waiting I pushed crumble from the rock I broke into the joints to cover the seam. Once it cures your good. The trick is pushing the epoxy into the cracks and crevasses on both rocks. I used a scrapper from Harbor Freight.
