OK so i JB welded stainless salt shakers to climbing hook like key chains so they would A) have a handle and B) have a hook. For use as a cup. But I just was trying out a new stove and went to take the cup off when water was boiling and the darn thing fell off

JB Weld is heat resistant, but it does not hold well to smooth surfaces. Try using after roughing-up the surfaces.

The quick silver I think you are referring to is actually called quick steel. I absolutely love quick steel and have tried it because like you, have had a problem with jb weld and heat. I never use jb weld anymore and I have personally seen quick steel hold up to temps above 150F and to pressures exceeding 13 PSI.

you could try brazing. it takes less heat and you can use a clothes hanger for the brazing material.

Silver solder will join unlike metals with low heat. (still need a torch).
I would guess you are trying this out just to see if epoxies can be used in a SHTF scenario? My basic tool rules:
Deploy your assets, if you spread them out no one know how many you really have............................ Redundant calibers are just another asset........... Have passed, "need", along time ago......... Invest in airplanes and firearms, never women or cars....... Precious metals..........Brass and lead...... The more you know, the less you have to carry....... SHTF Militia Good site; http://www.survivalblog.com/ |

Actually i did what stainless suggested and roughed it up a bit and JB weld again and it worked great.
Thanks for all the ideas "When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty..” Thomas Jefferson
