I was considering doing that but nothing will be painted. Everything will be sandblasted and powdercoated, so I am not sure how well reconnecting things will work. An epoxy would be removed by the sandblasting. Welding could be a pain given how thin/fragile it is.

If I don't find something though I might have to take the hit and try that out.

Thanks

I'll be doing a build log once I have more of the details sorted out.... thank you.

Epoxy is incredibly strong, or at least can me. My only fear with epoxy is that there really would be much of it, but it might be worth testing on some scrap pieces.

Figure if I don't find something by the end of the month I'll look into modifying a 10 slot one.
