Well I am trying to stick a stop nut onto my bolt ation golf ball loader. I tried to epoxy it twice, and I JB Welded it overnight and it still broke off. It if directly on the barrel so I can't drill it or puncture it with anything... what do you recommend I use? I tried taking pics but my camera is a piece of fecal matter and the flash screws everything up, plus it won't stay on for more than 2 seconds at a time.

Get into the settings, you can change the shut off time, it's a battery saving feature. You can also turn the flash off, but you will have to hold the camera very still to get a clear picture. When I turn my flash off, I set the camera down and use the timer.

I don't think there is a setting to turn off in 2 seconds... I don't have enough time to turn off the flash and take a picture. I think I solved my gluing problem, i just got a little piece of pvc glued together and welded it to the barrel, but it jsut broke off when I was shooting it for somebody so I have to reglue it. It was working good though... :(

As long as you keep pushing buttons the camera should stay on. Unless the options just wheren't built in....

Yeah that's what I have to do... just keep pressing the focus button until I take the picutre, but after each pic it turns off.

I always let JB-Weld cure for 3 days before even touching it. Yes I know it says curing time is 24 hours, but I've had much better results waiting several days before even sanding it down.
Maybe try some Araldite.

Well I've already welded a piece of pvc to the barrel, no way that can come off.

ahh this is drenched in glue and it is primed, let it sit for 2 hours at a time, so not a chance.
