Count Bassy Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I thought it looked better before she painted it pink. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewblack Posted February 1, 2019 Author Share Posted February 1, 2019 I know what you mean about the colour but the hole filling hack looks really useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul S Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 There was some talk a while back of using backing soda and superglue to fix a broken nut as the two together make an incredibly hard thing. Parsimonious fellow that I am, I used that tip and adapted it to glue together a pair of Mrs S's spectacles where the little thingumeebob that holds the arm into place had snapped, preventing the little screw from biting into anything. Worked a treat - albeit the arm is now fixed and not able to fold in. No point wasting £1 on another pair! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stewblack Posted February 1, 2019 Author Share Posted February 1, 2019 Reminds me, must see if my old mum has finished getting the snow off the TV aerial, I need her down off the roof, that shed won't paint itself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fleabag Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Matching that record case colour was always going to be tricky, but that method would be much easier on black Tolex, i would think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bought a 2nd hand amp has a couple small scuffs need fixing. Going to try this method on an old tatty one first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
