I also ended up ordering epoxy from a manufacturer for much cheaper than I could find at home depot and the local boating store. I got 6 quarts for a little more than what I would have paid for two locally. They have a website raka.com, and I ended calling and explaining what I was building. They said the closest thing to that their epoxy is used for is outdoor raised flower beds. He said two coats and it'll last for years. He also calculated how much I needed based on surface area and I doubled it because of another project.
eta The epoxy they make is for boat building so it should be good.
I thought I responded to this, almost positive I did. Strange...Go with the hinge, crap gets stuck in the sliding glass, humidity escapes easier and small critters will probably make their way out. Nevermind the annoying sand/dirt that is going to get in the track. Cage looks good.
