The New Hotness

  • Needle Case Repair

    A needle case emerged from the bottom of a drawer in need of repair:

    Needle Case - unglued
    Needle Case – unglued

    The original joint used solvent glue and I suppose I could refresh it with acetone, but two blobs of hot melt glue seemed easier and, IMO, more durable.

    In any event, it’s once more ready for use:

    Needle Case - repaired
    Needle Case – repaired

    Hooray for another zero-dollar repair, although you can see why nobody else does them these days.
