Not really...tap, tap, tap...clamp, clamp, clamp...tap, tap, tap. Just keep
it level/flat/straight as you do so.

Is that epoxy, or is it one of the waterproof exterior glues?


IMO, you want epoxy. With a thickener. I've never timed it but epoxy sets
up very slowly, I'd think you'd have a minimum of 30 minutes and even then
it doesn't set hard, just starts to get syrupy. It won't get hard for a
day; REALLY hard for several days.

It does set faster with heat and setting generates heat - more mass = more
heat - so don't put it in a narrow deep container if you want maximum time.
