Is there a 5 minute epoxy that expands somewhat? I've tried polyurethane (Gorilla) glue and it didn't work for me.

You might try JB Weld, 5 minute epoxy.

Hmm. Is there another type of GG? I know that custom fishing rod builders didn't like that particular one as it expanded in the seams of the cork rings, making a mess to clean up.
Try Araldite; they make a 5 minute and 90 minute. (The 5 minute is more like 2 minute). The 90 minute is more like 10 minute. When I come back it has always come out both ends of the blank: so it expands. I buy it at my local jewelry supply store.

It's pricey. $12 at Amazon for 30ml (1oz) total. I might give it a try, though.
It's about $4USD here. The one in that short link is the metal epoxy, I use the "normal" 90 minute epoxy; you can try the red 5 minute one but I find it too fast for me.
Unfortunately, amazon only lets me see what can ship to me. They cannot ship chemicals to me anymore.
