Thanks Step, I used the Arjay 6011 pourable compound like mauryc and nymack. Yes it does set and harden and you have to get all the wood out. Although I will say it sticks to everything I had some left over that I put on some wood to test and I could not get it apart. Also, I did do a good bit of glass work after the pour to bring it all together and looking good. Yes it has 2 coats on it and I have 2 more to add as soon as weather permits. I took a piece of glass that I cut off under the cap and had the paint shop match it for me.
