If you use it often, Titebond (a big glue manufacturer) sells a hot-melt urethane glue gun called Hi Purformer http://www.titebond.com/IntroPageTB.ASP?UserType=1&ProdSel=ProductCategoryTB.asp?prodcat=3 that is exceptional. The problem is, once you open up a cartridge, you really need to use it up within the month, or it will turn itself into a blob of unusable plastic. The bond strength is phenominal, and you'd break the wood before the joint failed. I glued granite tile piece to another and afer it cured, I was able to break it, but part of the crystals of the stone pulled out! The hotmelt would probably held better if you glued them on before you painted the rod - same with any glue you use - the paint will act like a bond breaker. Not all hotmelts are the same.
