: Rick--

: Pretty sure you want to use epoxy to glue the cockpit rim to the riser. If

: it into place overnight. Then when it's cooled, unclamp it and glue the
: whole thing up.

Thanks. I was intending to use my heat gun, but I may take the opportunity to go ahead and put together a steaming rig, for future use.
