shn7 Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Only a guess but would it be polystyrene glue as used for airfix type kits? Don't blame me if it goes horribly wrong though 😳. Steve. Not forgetting Percy the Polar Bear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myles Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 I've seen the same kind of goo used as for front cycle wings... 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 Alcester Racing 7's Equipe™ 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 Alcester-Racing-Sevens.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myles Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 As an alternative, I suspect that 'hard-plastic' glue (I got some described as such from B&Q) will work better than polystyrene cement... 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 Alcester Racing 7's Equipe™ 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 🙆🏻 Alcester-Racing-Sevens.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul McKenzie Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Drill through the lugs and screen and cement a small (8mm x 1mm) dowel in place - that's the permanent fix. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian balson Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Have had this problem in the past. Surprisingly "Superglue" has done the trick, lasted a couple of years to date. Rgds HPC150 Superweight R600kg 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dickie Normuss Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Cyanocrylate (super glue) works well, once glued drill a small hole through the screen and into the block, insert a Carbon fibre dowel or small screw, worked on mine Seek forgiveness, not permission. Rules are for the interpretation of wise men and the obedience of fools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerrypike Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 yes, previously discussed in archive somewhere i used chemical metal, with a small section of coat hanger wire for the dowel (cheaper than CF 😬)- no problems past 3 years jerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
