Thanks that helps a lot. I've also been told that 5 min epoxy is less strong than the longer curing types. Then another guy told me ''epoxy is epoxy'' so there seems to be, like in everything in life, many viewpoints.
30 min epoxy gives a longer working time for parts that might not align quickly. The bond is also somewhat stronger as it has more time to soak into the wood, but I really don't think anyone would be able to tell the difference. If it breaks 5 min. stuff, it will, quite likely, break the 30 min. stuff, too. Either one will give you a joint that should be stronger than the surrounding material.
