Points and adaptors...what glue

I just bought some 100 gr Snuffers and long adaptors...what glue to use with this set-up?

Aluminum adaptors if that helps.

I would use an epoxy. I don't know if you get it in the US, but I use an epoxy called Araldite. It comes in a nice 2 tube syringe and is really easy to mix. I would definitely use a form of epoxy, and not hot melt or anything like that.

GoatTuff (KustomKing). 'Nuff said.

I always use Devcon a two part epoxy.

JB Weld works excellent with BH adapters.

What about HIT Epoxy? I just got some with my arrows and I'm going to have some extra left over so I figured I'd use it on this as well. Other thing I seem to have around is some hot glue. I could also dig up some JB Weld if I look hard enough as vermonster13 suggested.

Snuffers just got here today...nice edge but needs work any suggestions on getting them sharp?

I have a G5 two sided sharpener but it isn't working all that well. Going to have to do a search since a lot of people use them.

Thanks,

Josh

Goat tuff is great but sets up real fast. Not sure if it would give enough time to make adjustments if needed.

I've been using hot melt for over 15 years on this application and have never had an issue. I like to spin by broadheads true, and hot melt works the best for this. I shoot glue on judos with inserts to get extra weight and use hot melt here as well. Sometimes I wreck my judos if I hit a hidden rock, but the glue joint always holds.
