Re: How can I glue a broken nylon gear?

Hello Jim,

Have you considered casting your own gear?

That's a good idea. This whole thing came up when our former neighbors visited last week. The husband said he could probably make a new gear from brass. I just wanted to see whether there is an easier solution and I could spare him the trouble. Plus they live across the ocean.

I don't think you can glue nylon.

My gut feeling told me that, too. But engineering minds don't give up until they know for sure...

Regards, Joerg
