| Creosotewind | Rogers 40mm Bofors AA cannon | Parked | 26-May-10 11:25 |  | | Views : 598 | | I found some new resin and, using PFinn and Frwyflyer's suggestions with injecting, rather than pouring the resin, I used this squeeze bottle. Worked well. The tip of the squeeze bottle is on the table. What looks like the tip on the bottle is actually dried resin. It doesn't stick to the bottle so I was able to remove it and reuse the bottle. |
