Cracked bridge or not? You make the call
« on: December 08, 2014, 07:11:33 PM »
I'm saying towards yes, but I'm always welcome to 2nd, 3rd, and 10th opinions.

I only bought the ball in March or April this year, so I'm well within warranty. My only challenge will be to get the same top weight and pin. But what say you?

BL.

The distance is measured from the edge of the pin to the edge of the drilled hole, not the center of each. Either way, glue it, will be fine for time to come.

I would simply super glue it first then once it cracks worse plug it...my opinion only of course

On a very thin crack like the one in Brad's picture, will the super glue seep far enough down before it starts hardening? Or in the case of a thin crack, is it better to do a pitch plug of fingers?

If it does harden pour more on top...

SUPER GLUE IT!! It'll be fine. I've had bridge cracks way worse than that and the super glue fix solved it with no problem.
