[ARC5] Need ceramic rotary switch

[MICHAEL ST ANGELO]

Moe,


If you can't get a replacement you can try to fix it.


I had a ceramic switch with similar cracks. I fixed  it by applying epoxy on the outer edge and covering the edge with a weave type of fiberglass tape about 1/8 inch wide  and 1 inch long for reinforcement.


Make sure you don't get any epoxy on the contacts or rotating surfaces. I applied it along the edge with a toothpick.
