Re: Working Man's Burbon

Weird they call it a plastic welder. When I was in the copier/printer business we had these sort of cracking issues with different types of plastics. I kept a few old broken pieces in my tool kit and used a normal soldering iron, just like whats pictured but it had a pointy tip. Melt out a deep a grove as possible, melt a chunk of my broken piece (same material) into the grove, and smooth it out with the tip. If need be use a razor blade to smooth it down even more.

All this time I was a welder haha!
