stabilized wood....

[valleytinworks]

I am looking for someone that is set up for impregnating wood with epoxy resins, or can offer some advice on this topic, this has nothing to do with knife making though….

The use acrylics, though.

Northcoast Knives has a tutorial on doing it yourself with Minwax Wood Hardener. Haven't tried it yet but will be in the near future as I have some unstabilized maple burl.

i am looking for someone capable of doing ALOT of this for a highly specialized product.... just curious to know if anyone here is set up for such or could be, i would rather offer the opportunity to a fellow bladeforums person than a company that i have found online....

I'm a boatbuilder who uses a lot of West System epoxy on a daily basis for wood impregnation as well as adhesive and filler applications. I may be able to offer some advice/assistance.

I did trade some but I bought most of the Koa when I was over there a couple years ago.

Yes, contact Mike at WSSI.
