As far as West system goes, I have to say me too. I have found it easy to mix (with available pumps). It has both a fast and a slow catalyst. The odor is OK. It dries well without residue.
Back some years when I was teaching structures in an A&P school, I devised a project for the students to glue together two scarfed pieces of 5/8 pine stock, similar to what would be done to repair or extend a spruce longeron in the KR. After the epoxy has cured each student had to test his piece to failure by adding lead weights to a bucket, which was supported by the pine structure. In each case there was never a failure of the glue joint. The student was not allowed to pass the wood class unless his glue joint held together. We always used West System.
