Default Using 2 power supplies

I have a large job to do. The only problem is my new power supply wont be here until later this week and the customer wants the job done now. I do have 2, 3 amp power supplies but I need 5 amps to do the job. Has anyone ever used 2 power supplies to get the power they need. Sounds crazy but I really want to get this done.

2 units, two parts... yes.
2 units 1 part... no. Never done that before. No idea if it will work/harm the PS units.

I know my astron power supplies let you use one as a master and then piggyback a second one. I don't believe you can hook two ps up to one connection and anodize with both their ratings.
