Re: pic: What is that black goo ?

Would you epoxy instead of welding? Given the choice, would you epoxy the metal of your drive train frame? I'm of the opinion to weld metal together, but perhaps this is just as well; I've never experimented with it before.

We are trying to think of how to attach fiberglass to metal in ways that don't use heavy mounts: would this really work and stay durable for ~48 (most-case scenario) matches? If the mount broke, it'd be pretty devastating since the epoxy takes at least a day to completely harden.
