My friend Chester, master guitar builder, uses CA cyanoacrylates on all small gluing that doesn’t call for hide glue. I fixed a acrylic lid for a rice cooker a while ago. Didn’t think it would take the steam but its fine, and happy in the dishwasher too. All the suggestions are good, but perhaps over kill. Just Crazy Glue with maybe a tiny thin cloth patch across the crack. aproposmarine.com |

I will just mention (quoting the website of The Natural Gourmet Institute): Super glue is a synthetic adhesive that binds together broken household items. As the major ingredient of super glue is Cyanoacrylate, it is not food safe. Cyanoacrylate is a cyanide derivative, which is a toxic chemical that is not FDA-approved to come into contact directly or indirectly with food. https://naturalgourmetinstitute.com/is-super-glue-food-safe/ (Likewise: https://iupilon.com/can-you-use-super-glue-on-food-containers/ ) N ---------------------------------------- [.] Subject: [oldtools] Juicer repair My friend Chester, master guitar builder, uses CA cyanoacrylates on all small gluing that doesn't call for hide glue.

Yet we use it to close wounds. |

Subject: Re: [oldtools] Juicer repair > Yet we use it to close wounds. Not really. Surgical/Medical quality "Super Glue" is different from the stuff we buy at the local Ace Hardware. (Kind of like the difference between food grade linseed oil and what we use to finish our rake handles.) N |

The break to be repaired appears to be in the outer case of the juicer, so there is no direct or indirect contact involved. Cyanoacrylate glue would be fine. "In addition, the FDA recognizes three types of food contact. Direct Contact substances are those that directly contact food. Substances that might come in contact with food, such as on the outside of food bag or carton, are defined as indirect contact. Finally, incidental contact substances are those that rarely contact food and the contact is not purposeful or continuous. For example, food that contacts an extraneous part of a food processing machine where contact is not expected is considered incidental."
