Pretty much... You could extrude the A and B parts of the epoxy resin into a small heated mixing chamber and print with that. But that will be an experiment for someone else. My next door neighbor laughs at me when I help him lay up carbon fiber or fiber glass. It always gives me such a headache.

He has been working with that stuff since the late 70's when he started building electric cars, boats, trucks, gokarts, barcaloungers... Yes I said barcaloungers. He is an old school builder... "Think The World's Fastest Indian" and you would have a good idea.

Anyway I got the EV bug from him but I tend towards the new fangled tools...
