Attempted to put together my first wedge

Well I trimmed the shaft tip and sanded it down. So then I got to use the epoxy that comes with Golfsmith's clubmaker kit. I figure I will use the tip they in their videos. Rub a little epoxy on the ferrule head, slide it on the shaft, press the shaft/ferrule against the ground or surface and make it go up the shaft then use the club head to push it down to its set position. 2 problems. First I got the ferrule on the shaft pushed it down, but it was flush with the shaft tip. I tried to push it down with the head and it wouldn't budge. Second, that epoxy absolutely ******. Why in the heck would you pack 3-5 minute drying epoxy in a beginner pack? First when I was mixing it the epoxy looked like it was dissappearing into the cardboard. So then I went to the garage for one minute, came back, and the epoxy was already hard...horrible.



So now I am stuck with my shaft tipped, abbraded, one ferrule left, and no epoxy.
