			3M 008115 epoxy that stuff is as strong as steel holds the steel to steel great and it hold to fiberglass and plastics great won't come off if it does it would be the first time i have ever seen it happen i used it on car rubber bumper covers and putting body kits on cars  if you get it on a 5/16 bolt grade 8 it will snap it off but yea i get what you mean low funds and lots of things you want/ need to get to build things the way you want them

			yea it should  you have to ruff it up real good 60 or 80 grit sand paper and you can glue metal with it instead of welding but it takes like 24 hours to cure and 12 to set up thats at 70 degrees

   . Thanks to Ken for the e-mail   . the whole prob with the build was getting a hold of good 90 deg pics and aireal pics   now I get to see them at this stage   till I get some O&A for the torch and weeks of rethinking (designing ) they're on the shelf   finally got over the downness of that and got deep into the td40   .
