Hi, im in the rain forest in peru, and i heard the story that natives peoples know a plant that produces a resin that is similar than epoxy.  Im still trying to know the  name of this plants, but no luck.

Do anybody know about tbis? Is there is a plant that produces resin similar to epoxy?

Do you know about plants of proyects involving the use of sap from tree for 3d printing?

Could it be Gutta-percha? The resin used to be quite widely used and is still used for dental repairs I believe.
