I use heavy cutters for Kevlar, don't want to risk my finer cutters on that.
As for the retainers, I've used plain old Bob Smith epoxy (15 or 30 minute) with no problems whatsoever. For the motors I fly heat is not that much of an issue. And yeah, apply the epoxy to the tube and slip the retainer over it.
