I don't think the epoxy idea will fly ... or more to the point, I think it
will fly, but the direction of departure may be less than helpful!
Capscrews, possible, but again, I think I would worry about what happened
under load.
If it was me, despite it being difficult, I would either do it bit
Presumably your machine is different to mine..
I have a BT30 spindle and it had broken washers when I got the machine.
I was very relieved to simply loosen/remove two locking nuts at the top of
