    I am not using "5-min" epoxy for it decomposes over time and is not water-stable (UHU Schnellfest).

    Net to get that JBWeld!

    Your point is well taken. The quick-cure epoxy types have a different chemistry than the slow cure stuff. I only use the quick-cure epoxy on non-structural situations, like this decorative hemispherical anchor-light lens atop the TRENCHANT's rudder.
