Am I reading this wrong?

Just received three Gadsden Flag kits. None of them had the 2 part epoxy included. The first sentence of the instructions reads, "This kit is made up of 3 pieces of yellow and green dyed Basswood and black colored 5 minute 2-part epoxy."

To me that means the epoxy should be included with the kit. Easy enough to to mix my own epoxy and do it. Am I making too much of this?

My read is that the black portions of what was inside the package was made with black epoxy.

You get to provide the assembly epoxy resins to complete the process.

(Memory is that the letters are filled black)

I read it as you do. Sounds like to me like there would be 3 pieces of yellow/green bass wood and also some black colored epoxy.

I don't think the epoxy would be included. I think this is one of those rare occasions where a comma should be used with an 'and'.

:wink:

Yep. I think that this is a case where grammar definitely kills. Let's eat grandma! as opposed to: Let's eat, grandma!

Just had an email from my vendor who contacted his supplier. The epoxy is not supposed to be included. He's going to reword the instructions. BTW, black filler dust works well on this kit, but be very careful that you don't over sand as you can lose some of the detail on the snake.
