The epoxy system they ship with the practice kit is "E-Z poxy". Actually, you
might even be better off using Aeroepoxy instead. That way you will learn with
the epoxy used on the Europa.

In fact, you could simply buy the manual, and buy all the supplies locally.
Except for the foam and epoxy, the other supplies included in the kit is
inadequate to complete all of the practice projects. If you make even one
mistake in cutting the cloth, you will run out of cloth. There are not enough
cups, brushes or mixing sticks to complete even half of the projects. You will
have to buy them locally anyway. 

If you are interested, I can email you the items that came with the kit. That
way you can inquire with a local supplier before placing the order.

Rowland & Europa list,

I'm seeking to order the Composite Materials Practice Kit from Aircraft
Spruce:

although there seems to be 3 options:

Practice Kit w/  Manual        P/N 01-15000 $62.000

Practice Kit w/o Manual        P/N 01-15100 $50.750

International Practice Kit P/N 01-15050 $41.600 
Same as Kit w/ manual but no epoxy for int'l shipping.

Is it the 'International Practice Kit' I'm required to order for the UK due
to shipping of hazardous substances etc. and if so where can one purchase
the appropriate epoxy in the UK??
Anyone from the UK whom have purchased this kit wish to give me a rough
estimate on how much the postage charge is??

Cheers

Paul Sweeting.

p.s. Congratulations Andrew for introducing the list to the benefits of
Linux. ( Rowland - Linux Kernels are readily available for the mac )
