In the non-food fridge in the APL you'll find (or should find) small syringes of fiber epoxy components labeled 'A' and 'B'.

Hold the syringes under warm water to reduce epoxy-component viscosity.

Place an epoxy mixing tray on the electronic scale and tare.

From syringes add 1g epoxy part A and 0.1g epoxy part B to the mixing tray.
