Sometimes as much as a 50% varaince with the amount of hardener. Independant of sending the pump back, I have a question. All of the batches I have mixed seem to harden, but what test is there to determine the actual strength, or more appropriately, the "correct" strength of the hardened resin? As I move along through the construction, I would hate to have peices that are hard but not HARD, do you know what I mean?
