    OH BOY, more Red Rock wrenching! If that's the case I may order the metal tabs and we can really make a party of it.

    That would be nice... the epoxy I used with the plastic tabs works well, but it takes four hours to set. That's a lot of time to be waiting for rain...

    Check out SBC's posts re: the hot glue...he says no probs withstanding AZ heat...however, that doesn't mean it will withstand the MUCH lower temps experienced a bit farther nort.

    Just a wild thought, that MAY prove useful...

    Snoop around for club builders epoxy...my Bro builds golf clubs, & has experience with fast setting epoxies that he gets from golfsmith.

    I figure, that if he can build a club that can withstand the torsional/centrifugal loads created by 100+ mph club head speeds @ impact, & be ready to hit in about an hour (or less), then our window load stresses should be much less.
