I need a few gallons as well
West Systems epoxy has been successfully in the past. Here's the website: http://www.westsystem.com/
I would try to find a 3M epoxy with comparable properties.

Re: mmm
I am pretty nervous about the safety limits on these presses and the potential for serious injury if something goes wrong is pretty considerable. I'll certainly put my design up for critque before I blow myself up! These ski presses can be very dangerous if not built and operated with caution so I ...

Inserts vary. I bought my inserts from CAMAX and you can specify any insert from them. Typically you tell them the thread size, height, and quantity. You can get their contact here: http://skibuilders.com/other/camax.shtm. For mounting tele bindings (G3 and O2) I use either a M5 (metric system) or 1...

I like to use adhesive to protect my bases and topsheets from epoxy and I haven't had any problems so far. For my last few pairs of skis I used a cheap roll of laminating adhesive (the kind of stuff you laminate papers with) that I bought for $5 at Wal-Mart. It comes in foot wide rolls so it'll cove...
