I dunno Jake....Paul Harvey touts the stuff on his WBZ noontime broadcast.....was always skeptical.....it's a two part epoxy that supposedly hardens like steel, and then can be machined.....was always skeptical.....I broke an aluminum part to this "cheapo" reel I was cleaning up to give to my father to use....couldn't get the part, even at Bucko's.....so, figured, what the hey, bought the stuff to give it a shot, "glued" it together....and I was skeptical (did I say that before?...)...

Held together just like a weld.....and I took a dremel to it to clean up the slop in the groove of the part, and it machined just like metal.......tried to break the "glued" piece off with my fingers with all my might, and it wouln't budge..........so I guess I'm sold....

And I hear that it works like that on engine parts as well, even hi-temp applications..........
