I get AcraGlas from Jantz in the small kits for just under $20. Brownells also carries it in the kits and in the much larger bottles if you find yourself using tons of it ...

Great tip guys! I love the feed store 3cc syringes I bought for .59 cents each, sans needles. They worked wonderfully for drawing out the resin and hardener in the little Acraglas bottles I have. Marked one with an "R" and the other an "H" with a Sharpie. Cleanup super easy. Draw each syringe full of acetone and eject contents 2-3 times. Notice I did not say inject!

I really love the ease of use and quality of the Acraglas bond. I went ahead and ordered a 28oz bottle of resin and 7oz bottle of hardener direct from Brownells for $58.61 + shipping (currently back-ordered). Sounds like a lot of $$ and product but in the end it costs nearly 75% per ounce less than those small kits from the knife supply houses and with a shelf life of 5 years should be no problem. For ease of use "getting my fix" I will save the little kit bottles I have to draw the resin and hardener into the syringes.

Tip: Somewhere somebody mentioned telling Brownells you are a business when ordering and did so when I registered on-line. I did get a discount, $58.61 vs $69.99. Hopefully this is of help to anyone interested. Thanks again.
