: Thanks for the heads-up. That will probably save my butt later on.
: Will any two part epoxy work (for instance the ones Walmart sell
: that have two tubes stuck together and mix themselves)?

: Thanks,

Hi Justin,
Those tube epoxy are good for really small jobs but as Bill said it would get pricy to us them for this purpose. A 'sample' kit of epoxy is fairly cheap, would do a few kayak frames if you glue them together, and even better, you have epoxy on hand for other jobs. Fixing furniture, bike fairings, assists in hair shortening, etc.

Sample kits are sometimes called repair kits. They usually have fillers in seperate packs, micro-fibre and micro-spheres in the kit.
