We have been purchasing pins or stickers on our destination trips. One of my wifes has had the pin break flush with the back of it. Anyone have a sure fire way of reattaching it? It can't be heated or it will ruin it. Ice & Boredom.:detective::D

If you can hold on for a couple days, I will ask my wife to see if she knows and if not she can ask her jewlery class teacher.

My wife is taking silversmith jewlery classes and her teacher is very knowledgeable in jewlery making..

He does small repairs lsuch as this as show & tell training in his classes.

I will get back to you with an answer...:thumbsup2:

MRAF, with my many years in the army and have pins brake off my rank pins, I just used some strong glue and put a thumb tack on the back. It worked great. :2cents:

How many wives do you have?

 

sorry. I've used the big thumbtack & super glue before & strong as new if light-sanded.

Well, I asked my wife, and she said not knowing what the pin is actually made out of, she doubts that it can be soldered back on with out damaging the front part from the heat. She said (as others here suggested) to use a good strong glue.

I have seen a liquid metal 'solder' glue for this type of repair...

 

Meanwhile, what is the pin? Maybe someone has a spare, or can find one.

Thanks for all the answers. The pin was from the JELLO museum in Leroy NY. It dosen't bother me but the wife won't eat Jello anymore. :confused24::rotfl::rotfl::D
