I am using West System epoxy. There are cheaper brands of epoxy, but I have been using the Gougen Brothers brand for many years with good results. There are no fasteners(nails ,screws,etc.) holding anything together, and all of the wood is completely encapsulated in epoxy. The picture is from a couple of months ago showing hull pieces going on the building jig.
