Where to Find WEST SYSTEM How-To Videos and Project Resources

Updated

WEST SYSTEM's how-to videos and project resources live in two main places on westsystem.com: a video library with content for both experts and beginners, and Epoxyworks, a biannual publication available in print and digital formats covering project inspiration, guidelines, and safety information. The site also offers a product finder and system-selection guidance for matching epoxy to a specific job.

How-To Videos

The site's video library is described as having something for everyone, "expert or beginner." Use it when you need to see a technique demonstrated rather than read about it—for example, wetting out fiberglass cloth, mixing resin and hardener to the right ratio, or fairing a hull. The homepage links to the library under a "See More How-To Videos" prompt.

Videos are a good first stop for:

  • Learning a sequence of steps before starting a repair
  • Checking your technique against a demonstrated method
  • Getting oriented if you are new to two-part epoxy

Epoxyworks Publication

Epoxyworks is WEST SYSTEM's own biannual publication, offered in both print and digital format. It is the place to go for project inspiration and longer-form guidance rather than step-by-step instruction. The site describes it as covering "projects, guidelines, safety information, and more."

Use Epoxyworks when you want to:

  • See completed projects and how builders approached them
  • Read up on safety and handling guidance
  • Find ideas for your own boat building, repair, or restoration work

The homepage links to it under "Visit Epoxyworks."

Product Finder and System Selection

If your question is "which epoxy do I need?" rather than "how do I do this?", the site provides two entry points:

Resource What it helps with
Find A Product Locating a specific product on the site
Select Your System Choosing an epoxy system for your project

WEST SYSTEM frames its two-part (resin plus hardener) systems as tailorable to exact needs without losing performance, so the system-selection guidance is the natural starting point before buying.

Pricing Reference

A price list page exists at westsystem.com/price-list/ for product pricing reference. Check that page directly for current figures rather than relying on secondhand numbers.

A Practical Starting Order

For a new project, a sensible path is: use Select Your System to identify the right resin and hardener, watch the relevant how-to videos before mixing, and browse Epoxyworks for project context and safety guidance. If you already know the product you want, go straight to Find A Product and then the price list.
