Any idea on how to repair this?

[Mrtoad]

I was removing the nails on this top pocket and it cracked. I am not sure if it is something I can repair or not. Any ideas? If not repairable does anybody have a replacement piece I could use? If not the same, just something that can work with the hole that is there for the pocket? Here are pictures if the part in place, broken and the hole for the pocket.

Thank you,
Mike

This is some aaaawesome stuff. I think it is actually stronger after using it. It doesn't dry in 0.0 seconds like super glue either. Takes about 5 minutes. Nice and gooeey which helps to hold the part in place.

Thanks for the reply. I have used similar to fix a cracked tray on a machine. I was concerned with such a thin piece if it would work. Do you think sanding it after drying would do the trick on such a thin piece?

I'm so mad at myself that I cracked it.

If it doesn't show don't bother sanding. I use my finger to wipe the excess before it dries and just wash my hand immediately afterward

Great thanks. I will pick some up and give it a try.

I like to use "Bondic" on the parts that need no weight bearing capacity. UV curing so the liquid stays wet till you want it to cure, great for parts that don't fit together nicely, you can hold them exactly were you need till you hit it with the light.

I use Plastruct (found at most local hobby stores) bonds most any types of plastics together.
