    Re: Blashemy? - Repairing LEGO Bricks? —Richard W. Schamus
   (...) <snip> (...) I'm curious as to where the Ambroid Proweld and or Tenax 7R might be obtained. In the recent past, I've used basically what Eric used, ABS/PVC MEK, which is not much of a solvent (plastic melter, plastic combiner), but more of a (...)

        Re: Blashemy? - Repairing LEGO Bricks? —Dave Schuler
     (...) Up until about a year ago I worked at a hobby store in State College, PA that sold both of these, as well as a host of cyanoacrylate solvents.

         Re: Blashemy? - Repairing LEGO Bricks? —Richard W. Schamus
     (...) I do understand, and I will be cautious. I have a host of non-set/extra Lego with which to conduct unnatural experiments on. I've been doing mod's for year, mostly just removing things that I don't like, but haven't found the right "glue" to (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.general)

     (...) I believe that both Legoland Carlsbad and Eric Harshbarger use Oatey General Purpose plastic cement. The fumes are bad, but it will definitely do the trick.
