Lee, do you have a picture anywhere of the kind of work they are doing? If so, it might be helpful in figuring out what sort of adhesive might be appropriate.
If they're using white glue you might want to take a look at E6000.
If they're using hot glue you might want to take a look at HiPurformer MP300 (note that MP300 is the only glue in the HiPurformer line that is supposed to work on copper).
Either should, from your description, make a bond that is more than adequate for the application, and both are very easy to use (do read _all_ the instructions though).
Don't see any reason to use an epoxy in the application you describe unless there's more to it than you mentioned.

It is very simple stuff. Just a piece or two of copper to accent some
wood., Other items are glued on there as well. I need to keep it simple.
Some craft ladies getting together and having gun. It has to go with coffee
and cake. Ya know, a social event.

LOL Damn spellchecker!
The intended word there was FUN. Guns are not usually associated with
coffee and cake.

----------------------
Here I am trying to come up with a non craft store adhesive. If I can just
have them buy something different form the usual sources, that would be
good. I will check it out.
I walked into Michaels the other day and tried to find a couple things.
After wasting an enormous amount of time, I found little of what I wanted.
And there was no help either. But the craft ladies thrive in that
environment. I guess I have too many male hormones for that kind of place.

E6000 sounds like the way to go. You can get it at Jo-ann fabrics,
Michaels, Dick Blick, and Woodcraft that I know of offhand. 6 bucks or
so a tube. Put it on both surfaces, let it flash off for a couple of
minutes, press together, it holds. It's a contact cement so the
flashoff is important.
Steve Knight has recommended it for attaching the soles on his wooden
planes.
Most places that have E6000 also have "Amazing Goop" from the same
manufacturer--it's less viscous and flashes off faster but otherwise
pretty much the same.

They just spend enough time in the store to know where to find what they
want. I've gotten to where I can generally find stuff in the art and
drafting supply area of the local one--anything else is a long search.
Really wish there was a real art supply store in reasonable driving
distance, but the closest one is 40 miles away.

This place is within driving distance of me, but my artist cousin near
DC was the one that clued me in to the place. Apparently it's very
well known in the art world. Tremendous selection, good prices, good
service.

I'm lucky enough to have a GREAT one within 5 miles (but have not been
there since the girls graduated from highschool over 8 years ago)

ROTTING estrogen.
But I've found lots of goodies there. T-squares, plastic triangles,
paint brushes, acrylic paint, etc.
