Default Re: Glues for Alum/brass etc..

Epoxies and CAs(super glues) should work but I would try them on scrap material before good parts. Make sure you degrease the surfaces which includes fingerprints!! Also roughen up the mating surfaces some so that the glues have something to adhere to.

Very true! I usually degrease my fingers as well!
I use this supplier: http://stores.ebay.com/polymerproducts
And I am very happy with the results.
