Warming the JB Weld will decrease the viscosity. I used to pot solid
state modules for the side-winder AIM_9H using Hysol epoxy, it was done in
a vacum chamber, no voids or bubbles allowed.

JB weld works well for this.

Greetings,
I'm trying to save a couple old plastic knobs that have stripped set
screw
threads, that don't have brass inserts. I remember reading someplace
about
a machinable potting material that is easily flowed into a mold. I've
tried JB Weld, but it doesn't flow well. It has a tendency to leave void
areas. I want to drill a new set screw hole and hand tap it for 4-40 set
screw.
I remember seeing some discussion on potting material on one of the
groups
I read, so I'm asking for help. Any advice will be appreciated. I will
also post this to some of the other groups I read.
