I went and bought a small bottle of the g/flex epoxy today, a little pricey, but we`ll see how it goes. I applied it to metal and leather, but it`s still not set as of right now, so i guess ill have to wait till tomorrow to see if it works for my needs.

If it works it looks like ill be in for around a 100 bucks a gallon, plus leather, paint, and 1/2" wide flat thread, if i can find any, why are these hobbies so pricey?
