This is my first post to the Message Board - so here goes.
Two years ago, as a prop in giving up smoking, I bought a Robbe U47. As some projects go, I sort of went at it in fits and starts eventually completing the model last October.
Before I finally launched the model, in a moment of madness, I inadvertantly over- tightened the dreaded threaded screw. As a result, the interior virtually disintegrated. In addition, a large part of the bulkhead which supports the O Ring broke off.
I have tried time and again to fix the problem using just about every adhesive in the known galaxy but with singular lack of success.
I have emailed Robbe to enquire if the parts are available for purchase separately - they did not deign to reply.
Can anyone please suggest where I might obtain the parts ?? or, indeed, suggest an alternative remedy.
I've managed to stay off the evil weed despite the above!
Thank you
John Turnbull
