I'm amazed someone actually concurred with my opinion on JB Weld!
I don't discount the "old school" methodolgy, and at the same time recognize the "proper way" is usually the "best way". Most (but not all) recommendations I find from the Club are of the "100%, proper way, proffesional methodolgy".
And this is "good", but I do like to give some options for those guys that: Don't have the money or time, willing to take a chance, willing to weigh the "risk factors" or just like to "experiment". Some of the "experiments" I've tried in the past were total flops and eventually I was "forced" to do it the "right way". But every once in a while, I pull off a great repair with a very simple (almost embarrasing?) solution.
So be warned you guys: My advice is not necessarily the "best" way, it's just a different way.
