Cheapest source for epoxy?

[flatgrinder]

Hi,

I'm making a batch of cord wrapped knives and was wondering who is the cheapest source for bulk epoxy glue? I'm looking for the kind that dries clear.

Thanks! :thumbup:

I just searched for the same thing last week and found a guy on e-bay with 2 part epoxy that dries crystal clear for like $16 or $17 per quart. I can't remember his handle but I found him by punching in "epoxy resin". The price sounds good compared to marine store prices. He also had different viscosities listed.

I have just started buying from Ellsworth after reading the "Glue wars" threads. They have a whole bunch of epoxies and adhesives. Most descriptions include specifics on color, tensile and shear strength, working temp. etc.
