Also, I would like to say that I'm using the JB Weld PUTTY not the glue. It is STEEL REINFORCED not just "glue and filler". Has anyone used anything other than "JB Weld" glue? This putty is used to repair American vehicles. I've seen it used to reinforce frames many times. I've seen epoxy resins used to BUILD BICYCLE FRAMES. People who build bamboo frames use epoxy putties and resins. Even companies such as Stalk bicycles use an epoxy system to build their bamboo frames.

This is an aluminum frame, so I understand that it isn't the safest method. This is for a strictly temporary fix, until I either replace the frame or have it welded. The break is not in a very dangerous spot as far as my safety goes, just the safety of the cords that run into my engine.
