Did you know...

by roberpic - 5/4/06 6:19 PM

... that krazy glue doesn't bond to krazy glue--dried krazy glue, that is. Odd.

I was trying to fix my broken (for the fourth time) XBOX Live headset. Up until the first time this now fourth-time-broken headset broke, I'd usually just go out an buy another one. Although, that was when I had a job. I now have a job again, but my old, jobless, thrify self wanted to krazy glue this headset back together. He--I--can't, because it had been worn out by krazy glue. :(

So, this is now my fourth *completely* broken headset. I guess I'll just have to try to krazy glue a non-reused headset back onto the reused boom. That is, if I can find one.

P.S.,

Don't get me wrong. I *do* take care of my stuff. I have CDs that are going on a decade old that still play in my half-decade old riovolt (yes, one of the first portable cd players with mp3 compatibility). I have Nintendo games that still play in a *working* NES (last time I checked about two years ago). It's not my fault. Microsoft just screwed up when they made these headsets.

Sand it down?

Try sand paper or even a nail file... then a paint thinner to clean it... and then let it dry and try gluing it again.. we don't have that glue over here... so I'm not sure what its chemically made out of... other choices would be plastic cement available from a model shop or a epoxy resin that will stick anything and available at most DIY/Hardware stores I belive...

Try Loctite

It's like Krazy Glue and it does stick to itself. It also comes in a handy nail polish style bottle with brush.
