I'll go trolling thru their site & see if I can find it then, thanks Mark. Loc-Tite stuff should be available at NAPA, and they are also in stock at Lowes lumber yards, but I have a NAPA right here in Weston. Loc-Tites own site doesn't know what a 600 series is, but they have a 2 part epoxy weld, claims one drop of each tube mixed=3350 lbs to break, 2 1 oz tubes on a card. Sounds good anyway. I'll get some. > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > ------- "Accelerate Dev Cycles with Automated Cross-Browser Testing - > For FREE Instantly run your Selenium tests across 300+ browser/OS > combos.
