Re: Weird Question...

"JB Weld" is an Epoxy!  I don't usually recommend brand names.
Automotive "Goop" should also work well once it sets up. (not an epoxy,
sort
of like RTV that eventually gets hard)
And, I usualy tend to use a mil spec Scotch industrial epoxy that is
similar
to "Liquid Steel"
(sometimes free when it goes out of date for mil spec use.)

I always thought bailing wire was used for farm equipment, car mufflers,
and
military shipboard radar. (when Duct Tape won't get it)
