It pains me to say this because I actually like some of the employees at Ill Street a.k.a. LeapTech. But I have long suspected that they short me on resin purchases. I recently purchased three gallons from them. These are two of the 1 gallon cans I have emptied. The next will be tomorrow.
In the one picture, it was just over half full. And on the other, it is missing just under a quart.
By the math, the 5 gallon pail that I typically purchase, should yield approx 50-60 more pen blanks than I typically get. Subtract what doesn't come out of the pail and the occasional heavy pour, and I'm still coming up short by a lot. On the average, I figure it's consistently 3 quarts short on a 5 gallon pail.
I fully place my reputation on these statements and offer a cautionary warning to anyone ordering from IllStreet/LeapTech in Charleston SC.
I have not had these issues when ordering from US Composites.
