I'm hoping to get the plywood core for my workbench project starting to glue up this weekend. It's the same type of construction as the one Sam Blasco did on this thread where he mentions making some Pookey.

Now where's a girl going to find a good Pookey recipe with company coming?:D
Anyway, I initially though he was using the same sawdust for epoxy filler for the glue-up but recently re-read it and notice Sam mentions using it for edge grain filler after the benchtop was together. So can I use the same type of Pookey for the glue-up as well? Or do I need to bite the bullet and order one of the West fillers? http://www.westsystem.com/frames/tier2/productinfo/productguide.htm
This is my first foray into using real epoxy, and not the 5-minute junk from the Borgs. I already bought the epoxy, hardener, metering pump, etc., but didn't think to get any of the filler as I thought the sawdust would work. I saved a good size ziplock bag of very fine Baltic Birch ply dust from the bottom of my TS cabinet just before getting the cyclone hookup to the TS done. Can I use that?
So, if company was coming and you had to whip up a quick batch of Pookey, what would be in your's? Any regional specialties like Texas Honey Mesquite Smoked Pookey, Chicago Deep Dish Pookey, or Philadelphia Cream Pookey?:D Cant seem to get anywhere locating a good Pookey recipe using Google.:confused:
