proform 1K highbuild. I usually spray it outta my 1.7 gun and use the catalysed 2K, but not for such a little piece. Careful if or when you buy to get the beige as the green or red sand really bad and tend to clump up the sandpaper

Wow, I have never thought of using pvc piping for that. You just saved me from cutting little circles of mdf with my router which is a pain in the arse. Also, the project is looking great, keep up the good work!
