Re-gluing that bit that the tailpiece wires rest on

[Owen]

Somenone has donated this DB to the college I work in. Fair play to them. However this bit has come off. I know I should boil up some bones etc. That is not going to happen. What do I use? Someone (a 5 year old?) has tried something but that popped as soon as there was any tension. I would also welcome suggestions for clamping for someone who has no clamps.

A bit of gaffer tape should do the job.

Fast and easy solution, but not very conventional would be SuperGlue with an accelerator, called activator.

 

Just slightly sand and clean both surfaces, apply the SuperGlue, then spray the activator: Within the next seconds, it will be as hard as stone.

 

Make this in an opened space as the vapours are not that good to breathe, and wear a mask.

Yoghurt is obviously not a good adhesive.

These are some of my favourite words when it comes to craftsmanship.

I am not entirely sure what went on there!

Wood glue you'd assume (hope!)

I am sure it is. But there are ways of applying it that do not look like that!

“Properly” being the word I guess.
