Looked at the photos that you had originally sent to this forum, as to the size bits you used. I said to myself "i bet those holes were either 1/2" (.500") or 3/4" (.750") & you confirmed my guess.

Btw: When working with bedding compounds & the materials seem a little stiff to mix, take the resin & hardner outside and set the containers in the sunshine for about 15 minutes to warm up. Better yet, set them on a black cast iron skillet or on top of your propane tank. The heat from the sun gets really absorbed by the steel & is then transferred to the compound container. Will make things easier to mix.
