West systems epoxy. Get the 105 resin and the 206 hardener. Go here and read up on it.

If you have a Harbor Freight close buy they have C-Clamps for a good deal.

Also use Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil on your workbench and clamps. It peels right off the dryed epoxy.

Instead of 206, 205 hardener may be a good alternate route.

If you want to protect the gun afterwards you can use 207 also.
