266351 "wmy2@f..." <wmy2@f...> 2018‑08‑18 Tote Repair
Fellow GalootsIn the past I have struggled aligning the halves of cracked plane
totes to glue them. I stumbled across a way to do so,using the existing hole,
recently.  It involves using a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver, shimmed with a piece
of soda can.  Thescrewdriver is a loose fit. Cutting a triangle shaped piece of
the soda can, with the tip trimmed off, I can use it as a shimto tighten  the
screwdriver to a snug fit, and the two halves will align easily.  Add adequate
glue, and a strong rubber band and wah lah, "Robert is your Mother's(or your
Dad's) brother.Once I discovered this, I felt it was too good not to
share.RespectfullyBill
