[QUOTE="FuzzyGrub, post: 512316, member: 3438"] For glueing the two 3/4" pieces togeter, I've used Titebond III (waterproof), available just about anywhere, Clamps are cheap at Harbor Frieght and superior to screws. I used 5 gal pails filled with water (or sand) in the center section where clamps don't reach well. Doesn't look that would be neccessary with yours. I treated the transom wood and coated the inside of the aluminum to create a barrier against corrosion. I used Glu-vit but your epoxy coatings should be fine. If you leave the face exposed, most epoxies need to be painted to prevent break-down from UV. You will never have to replace that transom again in your lifetime. [/QUOTE]
