CA vs epoxy, was Re: loose bridge pins

[Nelson. Gene (PWA)]

For loose bridge pins I favor epoxy. If the bridge is not split I remove the
pin, clean out the hole then swab - not fill - the hole with epoxy, let it
dry then drive the pin back in. It makes for a nice tight fit and will allow
easy removal if someone wants to recap the bridge later. I use West Systems
for this because of it's viscosity, takes longer to set up but works nicely.

For people who have used both CA glue and epoxy for loose bridge pins (or
other applications), do you have a preference?
