heh, I just dug one of those out of the scrap bucket and epoxied it into a drain plug in my truck that I finished rounding out in spectacular fashion.
I wasn’t the asshole who started rounding it, but I sure was the asshole that finished the job. Replacement with an actual hex head on it is sitting on the workbench. No more water trap woes if the cheap hex wrench stays glued in that fucked up part

I JB Welded a sawed off Allen wrench to my shitty Amazon bipod last week. Now it’s “quick release”!

Had a buckle on my favorite boot break. Cross section to be repaired was 1.5mm x 1.5mm. Held solid for months until I drunkenly tripped over the strap tongue at a party. (Not the first time drunk, tongue and party was a thing in my life.) JB welded it again. Stayed tight.
