HI Tracey,

    When I want to hold two pces metal together temporarily, I use
    'Superglue' - or at least, one of the cheap variants of this. These
    cyanoacrylate adhesives will rapidly bond the pieces together so that
    you can drill and file them within minutes but will also release
    easily if you just heat the metal a little (as with a few waves of a
    torch or on a hotplate for a few seconds). Any glue residue can be
    removed by wiping with and acetone soaked tissue. 

Best Wishes
Ian
