useing two part "syringe type epoxy" for tacking.

Yeah, I've used it. Don't trust it for anything structural. I used it
for a rudder yoke on a sailing canoe and on a little fold-up dolly.
Both failed fairly quickly. I think it would be OK for joints that
don't take _ANY_ stresses, or for sealing up edges of thru-decks etc,
but I wouldn't trust it for any stressed joint.
Good to know. I had planned on useing it to eliminate the stiches.
Rather, the boat is stiched right now. I was going to spot weld next
to the stitches so they could be removed, thus letting the fillets be
one continuous bead. Guess I'll go the regular route!
thanks,
