NLC - adhesive to join plastic and wood

Post by **campbell** » Fri Jul 27, 2007 9:50 am

I've got a wee manual coffee grinder, whose bean hopper / grinder mech joins to the wooden grinds pot via a plastic collar.

Unfortunately following 6 months of regular grinding

the collar has parted company with the grinds pot rendering poor thing useless.

Looks like it was originally glued with some kind of thin impact adhesive like Evo-Stik...anyone got any recommendations?

I had ruled out Evo-Stik for the repair since it appeared so ineffective first time around

I'd go for araldite then - but buy it in the syringe type thing that premixes it as you use it - otherwise it's a pITA
