Used the steel, brass and alloy types when in the merchant navy Bob. When used correctly it will take a thread as long as you dont want extreme torque. Also used some etuff called Thistlebond that i havent seen for a while----was a woven glassfibre bandage along with a resin and hardener, didn't half get hot quick and burnt fingers!!!

Bob Wessner:
Bryanj, looks like Thistlebond is still around also.
