How can I repair this crack in the head of my F-13 BHO? It took one pike to hit and mis it, another I caught.. Are all originals this weak? Hi Kees, I would use epoxy glue after first making sure that the balsa wood inside is completely dry. Try gently prising the crack open to get the glue inside (you can use a toothpick to push the glue deep inside) and then try and find something that would keep a firm but gentle pressure on the crack in order for the glue to dry - perhaps an elastic band or some single strand copper wire twisted over a piece of folded grease-proof kitchen paper (something that the glue won't easily stick to). Epoxy is good as you have about 5 minutes to get it clamped down good before the glue sets. Nigel |
