are perfect, disposable, containers to mix epoxy in.
They sell for a penny a thousand. Try dollar store
or neighbourghood ShopRite etc.

Get one out, get rid of waxed paper insert, put
the alum foil one into a sturdy glass or whatever
and mix away.

When done, take it out and throw away.
 
I have an even cheaper way, I mix mine on junk mail.:D Thanks for the tip.:thumbup:

I use 4"x4" squares cut from the sides of beer and soda cartons. Around here, there is an inexhaustable supply...;)

Don't tell me you have a cutting jig made up so they're all right on and squared at 4"x4"???? ;) :D
 
I use the cone shaped white drinking cups for mixing epoxy. Also, you can turn them over and place them on your head and stand in the corner when you do something really stupid in the shop. :eek: Fred

Is my OCD slip showing again, Mike? :D

Actually I have a cutting mat that I have drawn the correct delineations upon...

Damn, you got my number, bro! :o
 
I use a lever-style paper cutter to cut wet-or-dry to size, so I fully understand, Jeff! :D Do you trim the end of the masking tape on the end of the roll if it's jagged, or just fold it over straight? ;)
