Broken rod

What kind of epoxy do you use on repair such as this? How do you think the 5 minute hardware store epoxy will work? 

I use a rod building epoxy that takes about 15 mins to set up, but honestly, your 5 min epoxy will be just fine. I doubt you would see any difference at all between the two.

My first build was a kit with what turned out to be 5 minute epoxy. Wasn't aware of the set time and barely got the grip on the blank. Took some grunting and groaning but got it down to the reel seat. Came close to using words and phrases that were popular i basic training.  Five minute or another (I used Two Ton Epoxy) will work. Just be aware of the set time.
