Default Preserving Epoxy (Epoxicles ???)

I am seeking advice about mixing and storing epoxy.


For 15 bucks you can buy an electronic scale on EBay with an accuracy of a
tenth of a gram that will allow you to mix tiny batches of epoxy.
Personally, I wouldn't feel comfortable with using previously frozen, mixed
epoxy for an airplane unless the epoxy manufacturer okayed it, but I'm a
coward. My advice is to get an accurate scale and only mix as much as you
need.

By the way, which epoxy are you using that has a 2.5 hour pot life in the
Texas heat?

Best,
