[Elecraft] OT construction question

[Nr4c]

I think you might be ok with a product like “JB Weld”. It’s a grey highly viscous Epoxy that can be molded into shape and machined when completely cured. Takes 24 hours to fully harden. Maybe 72 hours for full cure.  

I’ve seen modelers repair broken engine lugs on a model engine. When cured, drill out the mounting hole and remount the engine and go flying. 

As for the little mounting pieces you can make them with a file or nobler.
