I have a wooden paddle I'm replacing the carbon-fiber/glass ferrules on. The original ferrules came off because either the joint was glue-starved or the adhesive used was too brittle. I was considering what adhesive to use- maybe polyurethane, like Gorilla Glue?- when I spied a tube of 3M 5200 in the shop. Good bulk filling properties, flexible and tough as all get out. Seems like a good choice. Anyone have experience with 5200 in this use? -- mike ------------------------- Michael Edelman mje_at_spamcop.net http://www.foldingkayaks.org http://www.findascope.com *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
