Recommended Posts

I finally found my Ruby Blade that i thought was gone...

If one of you fine Folks have re-attached one before WHAT TYPE OF SUPER GLUE DID YOU USE?

Thank you in advance.

Luke,

I've not had to do that, but I have 2 suggestions:

1] go to a jeweler friend & have him re-attach it- he's got the proper jigs & stuff to line it up precisely (but you might take along some super glue- after all, they generally don't glue stuff down) or,

2] use gel super glue- it doesn't run & fills the gaps that might exist between the 2 surfaces & therefore makes a better bond than the thin, runny stuff.

Never did a ruby blade.

I would use clear Gorilla Glue, or the Rear View Mirror glue from auto parts.

If you use Gorilla glue, be sure to clamp it until it dries. Gorilla glue expands as it drys.

A little J B weld???? Don't know if it will mess with the ruby. You would have to read up on it.
