Those of you read my previous thread are aware that I am building a housing for a video camera. The housing is nearly finished, but I have a question.
I used an epoxy to glue the latches onto the plastic. The epoxy is called "Anchor-Tite", which is made for underwater use and supposedly has a shear strength of 2500 pounds per square inch.
However, while I was tightening the latches down, one of the latch hooks popped off. I am hoping it was because of an incorrect mixing ratio (the one that came off was glued on with a differently mixed batch than the rest), but now my trust has been shaken and I am wondering if anyone else has had experience with this epoxy.
If worst comes to worst and I have to re-glue the whole thing, can anyone recommend a really good epoxy?
I will post a complete summary of the project when it is finished.
Thanks,
McGill
