Does anyone know how I can put it back together?

I've heard that you can use earthenware shards to hold it together, or possibly even broken plastic computer parts.Chi Meson said:My glue is broken.

You mean "pasties"?zoobyshoe said:don't confuse any of this with "gluons".
That's EXACTLY what I mean.Evo said:You mean "pasties"?
Oh, yes, that's a tried and true method. I've found it to be an infallible approach. :rofl:matthyaouw said:I find an ideal way is to put it in a tube and seal it the best you can, then leave it in a drawer until you need to use it. You'll then find it as a perfectly bonded solid lump.
The drying time for glue can vary depending on the type of glue used, the temperature and humidity of the environment, and the materials being glued together. Generally, most glues will dry within 24 hours, but it is best to check the specific instructions on the glue packaging for a more accurate drying time.
No, it is important to use the right type of glue for the materials you are trying to glue together. For example, wood glue is best for wood materials, while super glue is better for small, delicate items. It is important to read the instructions and choose the appropriate glue for your specific project.
If you accidentally get glue on your skin or other surfaces, you can use rubbing alcohol or nail polish remover to gently dissolve and remove the excess glue. You can also use a scraper or sandpaper to carefully scrape off any dried glue.
It is possible to repair something with dried glue, but it may not be as strong as using fresh glue. You can try adding a small amount of fresh glue to the dried glue and pressing the pieces together, but it is best to use fresh glue for the strongest bond.
In order to ensure a strong bond, it is important to properly prepare the surfaces being glued together. This may include cleaning and sanding the surfaces, using the appropriate amount and type of glue, and applying pressure to the glued pieces for the recommended amount of time. Following the instructions on the glue packaging will also help to ensure a successful bond.
