Re: Epoxy, glue, loctite gear to shaft. Any chance of working?

I wanted to bump this thread up again to ask a few questions. First, we are trying to fasten a 20 tooth, 1/2" thick, 1.000 PD gear to the big minibike CIM for our transmission. However, the D-shaft eludes any easy way of attaching the gear securely on. Can the gear be fastened to the shaft just by the retaining compound, or is a press fit/retaining compound combination preferable? Any other ideas?
