So how much glue did it take to fill around it and how did it set up?

I used about 1/3 - 1/2 of the syringe in the head and it seems to have set well, i will know for sure tonight, i squirted the rest into the body, that was still a bit tacky, i think it didnt set properly because i mixed it in the body rather than on a tray. i do have 1/2 an inch of space in the bottom to fill from the second pack of epoxy, so as long as i mix it properly it should be fine.
The knot is set up to the top of the glue that holds the knot together, which is coincidentally level with the lowest point of the head, i am not sure what to do about the rest of the gap , i suppose i could support the troll at a few different weird angles and fill it with epoxy in sections, or i could just leave it as is.

I just had this vision of you mixing epoxy by squeezing a trolls belly! I hope that it disappears when I go to bed and doesn't lead to bad dreams! :-]

Holy Crap guys.I wanted to get away from this thread but I just had a horrible nightmare.
Ed sent this THING to me to fill and set the knot,no prob, I do re-knots all the time says I.
I looked at this THING, filled it with Black powder, set the knot, drilled a small hole in the THINGS bung hole,inserted a fuse,FIRE IN THE HOLE.
The THING is now all over my backyard.Just tiny bits and pieces,going back to bed now,alls well that ends well

the cheap shops have cheap hair dye that may work better

Hair dye tends to make hair brittle as well though, so i would be a bit wary of it, and once its done i am screwed if it doesnt work properly, i was thinking that mixed berry juice might work too.

Am sorry Ed, was just a Dream

Your alright, I've a thicker skin than that.

Troll update -after sanding down the epoxy in the lower section to get a reasonably flat base i tried the brush, it works as well as it did previously (no surprises there i suppose) i think the loft is slightly greater as only the plug is really set into the epoxy in the head.
to use it is quite comfortable, i think because the arms are moulded to the body.
Dave, whilst it is slightly top heavy loaded it will stand up on its own - just, dry it is fine.

That's a winner, Ed
