Pump
Roger,
Guess I'm the odd man out, but I used the pump and loved the ease and
speed. Only down side I found was having to clean it up every few
months. 15 minute job. Well worth it, in my opinion, for the
convenience of pulling the handle and you're done...
BTW, I got the pump with the kit, so cost was not a factor for me...

what most builders have done in the past. The cheapest of course is to
make the Europa mechanical balance which should be no problem (is it quick and
easy to use during a layup?) but I'm leaning towards either a Ohaus / Sartorius
digital scale with a resolution of 0.01gm (do I need that much precision or
can I get away with a lower cost 0.1gm unit?) OR a ratio pump like a Glenmarc
Portionator MBT-JR from A/S which is the most expensive of the all the options
(is it worth the cost for ease of use?).
