Could you use this to replicate round knobs on cockpit levers? It sounds like it might work. Can you paint it after it has set-up? Ron G 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Of course they really only work after they've been immersed in cocktails. No good out of the packet. Now if you managed to devise a white/silver and orange "rescue lanc" cocktail....... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have, but what brand do you recommend? Ernie, I've used two kinds. One called UV Gel from Gaianotes out of Japan. It works really well but is expensive for what you get. The other is Bondic UV . You can get that at Crappy Tire here so should be readily available in the US. If you can' t get it, let me know and I'll include a tube with your package. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a cocktail addict I have to say lets try , but I will though without the masses of ice in it, enough to sink the Titanic. With chilled ingredients and chilled glasses, it will be all right. The temperatures should vary of course, because it makes layering easier. Love that Monkey 47 in the background. Cheers Rob 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Rob It’s a very tasty combo! That was my first try, about a year ago - i’ve Since come to agree that it works best with zero ice, but with all ingredients near-frozen and yep - love me some Monkey 47 gin! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is a non LS of M build you find the section a little bit less prominent under 'Non LSM-builds' way down. There is a section called 'Non LSM, WIP and completed' Feel welcomed to show us your work Cheers Rob 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
