that tends to stick better than epoxy. With epoxy you need to load it a

Any tips or solutions would be gratefully received.

Thanks

I've found that JB Weld is generally better than Araldite - but I've
never used a decent epoxy only ever Araldite.

I've found that JB Weld is very difficult to find.

Does your local car accessory shop not stock it ?

CPC just down the road from you has it

Hi Geoff

What did you search the CPC site for? I've plugged 'JB Weld' in and
found nothing. It would be great if I could find a supplier.

I didn't search, I've ordered it from there in the past

I was assuming they would still have it

else, I expect I've got some at work, I normally order half a dozen at a
time (JB Quick, though) - I'll check tomorrow


By the way, pictures of the tripod can be seen he
