    I would just hate to make things worse.

    Just throw it away if I f it up, I'm sure they have nicer tooling at the factory, I deleted a couple disparaging remarks about French, I don't understand why I think that way

    With that much time, you should just grab a flight to France and wait around till they fix it.......

    I have made that flight before, Paris to Salt Lake City, at the time the only international flight into SLC. I hated the 17 hr flight from Atlanta to Johannesburg so arranged two 10 hr flights, Joburg to Paris then Paris to SLC then a puddlejumper home. Wasn't any better than the 17 hr flight in all reality, just 2 long flights instead on one

    Is that a Delrin tenon? I hear that you should roughen up the party you want to glue or epoxy in to keep it from slipping out. Maybe cross-hatch it, but I've never done such a repair myself.

    Just for the record, I think you'd do better to replace it than to glue it, no matter how carefully you do it.

    Agreed. Delrin is hard to glue.
