I have no skills at all when it comes to building clubs... or anything else for that matter.:?

Nevertheless, I am getting into club making. I have just reshafted a set of clubs, the last at 3pm.

i used selleys two part epoxy. Says 3 days for curing but did a club yesterday and seems pretty strong.

Do you think would be usable tomorrow at 1pm? About 22 hours to dry.

They will be fine.
If you dry them in front of a halogen lamp for an hour they will be good to go this arvo.
Or you could give them a gentle warm with the heat gun when you assemble each bat & then wipe off the warm residue that will ooze out under the ferrule with acetone & they will be good to hit in under 15 minutes.

If it's 24 hour epoxy they will be fine in 24 hours.
