Scott and Jake.

Thanks.

Was watching Nova and daydreaming (nightdreaming?) about how I might
fabricate something with my MIG and just how bogus epoxy would be.

FWIW, the epoxy was only to hold the new piece in place for assembly
so it would be sandwiched in place. But.....

I wasn't totally clear on how it all went together. (no new parts in
hand yet) When I took a moment to see it in my mind, I could see that
with a little movement, that piece would snap off like a twig, leaving
it floating around the bushings like a piece of bone floating around a
human knee joint.

Bogus man Bogus! <grin>

Neil.
