Dear Jan,

I am on the road to the museum.  I wil answer your questions and try 
to help you out when I get there.  It is a 2,100 mile trip so be 
patient.  As far as repairing plastic the best bonder is Plastix by 
LOCTITE. It comes in a blister pack with a liquid activator and a 
tube with the bonding agent.  It is really good.  Works on all 
plastics. It is distributed by Manco, Inc. URL is

links at the bottom of our home page at:  http://www.nadcomm.org

Thanks,
Don
Curator, NADCOMM
