All you composite guys. Are any of you using a epoxy mixing pump?
If so which one and how much did you pay for it?

I see one on Aircraft Spruce for $266.95.
Sounds too expensive.

The one from ACS is a Michael's. Expensive, but actually cheap at twice
the price in savings of time and ease of epoxy measurement. Make sure
that you get one that is or can be adjusted to your specific epoxy ratio.

These, occasionally come on the market as used items (although most keep
them). They are relatively easily cleaned (yuck) and rebuildable with
new reservoirs, valves, etc. Try a google search for them, although I
believe spruce is the cheapest, or will match the price.

In the composite world, there is quite an argument , kind of like
religion or politics, about pumps or weighing. Those who don 't have
pumps swear by weighing, and swear at the pumpers. Those that have pumps
can't for the life of them understand why anybody would weigh. Those
that have used both usually go for the pumps.
