TOPIC: I broke something else... |
Standard User Posts: 11 Jozi's Tin Man 28th May 2015 02:50:47 Ok, this time, I was fiddling with my French Napoleonics and one of the flag staffs was bent. While straightening it, it broke off right at the flag bearer's hand. Any suggestons on the easiest / laziest way to fix this? Any paticular glue? Or should I buck up and do some drilling and replace the staff and perform an eagle transplant? |
I don't even try to fix/replace the staff. I just use a piece of wire placed close. I drill a small hole into the ballast then glue the wire in place with Zap-A-Gap. Mark "Extra Crispy" Severin |
