Clear gloss coats are done and I turned my attention to finishing.
First up was the plastic nut had to go and be replaced with a bone nut.
Unfortunately, there was a bit of an accident when loosening the plastic nut with very light tapping ...
Now I am hoping that this is recoverable with some trusty superglue.
Any other suggestions? Would strong wood glue be strong enough?

oh loud bad words. Unlucky, looks like clean breaks so maybe superglue is the best bet?

Yep, I bet my loud bad words were worse.Originally Posted by FrankenWashie
Breaks are clean and the pieces fit back together nicely with no missing chips.
So it is just a matter of picking the right glue!?

It's a no load area but I would use PVA there rather than super glue
