I had an insert come out of my Nano One. Called Goode, Chris said to epoxy it back in, I ask what kind of epoxy to use he said any two part epoxy. He said Lowes should have something. Looking for a recommendation.

Thanks

JB Water Weld...it is a puddy or Marine Tex. I prefer Marine Tex; you can drill it and then reinstall the correct insert. Go to youtube and look up installing threaded inserts. There are tips on how to screw them in correctly; most people put them in backwards because they think you are supposed to use the slotted end of the insert with a flat screw driver and that is not correct.

@TUP Excellent advice above. For the record, if you're in a hurry or just happen to have 5 minute epoxy handy, it works fine for inserts too. I have some in my travel kit so have used it for quite a few inserts with no subsequent problems, including one that was pressed into service within 15 minutes.
