[SOLVED] Best Epoxy for for fixing broken hinge on HP envy

[barnyard80]

I have a HP Envy Laptop. The model is HP Envy 17-j141na i7.

The left hinge is broken. This is quite common. I need to glue the metal hinge into the plastic case, where the plastic screw hole has broken.

Which epoxy should I use for this?

I am thinking of one of these 2:

JB Weld, get's my vote but please let it dry for at least a day. The thing is, if the hinge and not the hinge mounting is damaged then the epoxy will help. If the hinge mount(base) is broken, you should look at changing the shell of the laptop.
