maccannic Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 The other evening (actually World Concertina Day) a pad came off the end of its lever inside my Wheatstone. I stuck it back on with Loctite super glue and it seems to be OK now. But I'm wondering if such a 'modern' material is the correct thing to use. What are your thoughts? And why would this happen after 109 years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d.elliott Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Both the pad and the little leather bead (grommet) are throw away items, so no problem with what you have done as long as everything was lined up before gluing. I would prefer to use white PVA glue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Edgley Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 I think a few things might fall after so many years. Including people! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d.elliott Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 to true Frank, we are all on our way, it is just the rate that varies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
