cog slipping? you're using a track hub, right? hopefully you haven't stripped it yet.
hold off on the jbweld for now.

before you start riding again you'd better make sure that you've tightened that cog/lockring down properly.
take cog/lockring off.
inspect threads for strippedness.
if not stripped, then clean and grease threads.
install cog - TIGHTEN WITH A CHAINWHIP
install lockring - TIGHTEN WITH A LOCKRING TOOL
ride
check lockring tightness again.

what cog/lockring combo are you using? some cogs/lockrings are too thin to provide adequate tightness against each other.
