I started woodworking as hobby a few years ago, and used some epoxy here and there to fill voids in wood. But after having epoxy on hand all the time, I realized just how absurdly useful it is for fixing little things around the house. Our microwave handle barb broke off. Epoxy it back on. Dropped a potted plant and the pot broke. Epoxy it back together. Etc.
There are super ergonomic and foolproof products that I feel like everyone should have around in that one kitchen drawer that accumulates all the miscellaneous stuff: https://www.jbweld.com/product/j-b-weld-syringe https://www.jbweld.com/product/j-b-weld-syringe

- Marsymars 5y agoI ripped the front edge off one of my snowboards by riding into a tree - paid $20 for a shop repair that ripped off again in a day - glued it back with marine epoxy when I got home from that trip, and it's been good for another ~40 days of hard riding so far.
