I like epoxy actually, it has it's purposes.
I just used it to glue in some threaded anchors today to a solid surface countertop to hold in an undermount sink, it will also be siliconed together and if it is filled with water and fails, I would be very surprised.
I also used epoxy to hold my entire boat together and it pulls the kids on a tube at 20 MPH just fine.

I heard some of those bolts did NOT even have any epoxy on them quality control was lacking to say the least
The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

epoxy = stronger than concrete.

atleast west systems is.

in the west newsletter a couple years ago they did tests in putting bolts into reinforced concrete using west....
the holes were oversized and either smooth or rough.

poured concrete into the holes.... bolt rips out easy
epoxy into smooth hole... bolt and epoxy plug rips out
epoxy into rough hole.... bolt epoxy and a fairly large chunk of the surrounding concrete rips out.
