TRex cone

[erinpac]

Any idea what might be best to reattach a TRex cone to it's threads?
The BF's been using one for about two weeks now and just unscrewed the cone to refill/recharge and it came off without the threading part. It can slide back together, but we need to re-stick it. :-/

Oh dear, I want to laugh because it probably looks funny but that is no help. I would imagine that some sort of glue, super glue would do it but there might be something more suitable as it is so close to the heat source.

I was thinking along the lines of an industrial adhesive. Something like liquid nails or JB weld....

One of mine slid off in what sounds like the same manner.

I used JB Weld on it and didn't touch it for two days. Seems to be fine now (although, admittedly, I AM treating that one a fair bit more gently at the moment). Was going to try some Gorilla Glue (my usual go-to for daily muck-ups), but as the fellas stated I was kinda' iffy about it being around the heat.

Hope it works out for you, OP!

I think I have some JB weld I meant to find to fix something else... Hm. I guess that's as good a motivation as any to figure out where I put it and actually fix that decoration on the headboard and also reattach this.

I don't think he was even particularly rough with it. He isn't always the most careful, but it actually happened in front of me and he didn't even realize at first. It just seems like whatever attached it gave out instead of it unscrewing.

Thanks. Ya; wasn't sure most glues would be okay if they got warm there.. then with it both being metal to stick together and it being a tight fit for some sorts of fixes, well... figured someone here would have better ideas than me.

Yeah... the T-rex cones have some fall-apart-issues. Not many, but a handful, nonetheless (i love that word).

Let us know if you need a replacement.
