R&D: LEGO Helmet Repair SUCCESS!

Dad skills 101: fixing a broken LEGO helmet. My sons love LEGO but as well all know the jaw piece on a LEGO helmet is fragile and will break of you just look at it the wrong way. I managed to align the pieces and solvent weld the jaw back together with dichloromethane (nasty stuff stay away) and buff down the finish until it looks nearly brand new.

Sometimes the small successes are the best successes.

B Blair seriously i live in California and they make everything illegal here. I had to lie to the guy at the store so he would sell it to me. They act like if the stuff makes it across the state line the next dozen generations are gonna instantly get cancer...
