I've used araldite on electronics before; It's actually been able to
reinforse some pretty rubbishy soldering on some no name ebay
electronics.

Eastman 110.

That's the best glue I've found.  It's a two part deal but you can hold a 
submarine together with it (literally).

Macbook Pro Feet

2010-12-22 Thread Buddy Brannan
Hi,

So I just called Apple support, which was something less than helpful. (I don't 
think he had this in his database, so he wasn't sure what to do with me.) 

For the past couple weeks, the left front foot on my Macbook Pro (just 26 days 
out of warranty) started feeling a little mushy, for lack of a better term. 
Today, it popped right off, and it won't go back on. I feel a litle bit of 
tacky adhesive where the foot goes, but certainly nothing that will hold 
anything. So what I asked the Apple guy was, "What kind of glue should I use to 
re-attach this foot?" He said something like, "Uh, well, yeah, any kind of glue 
should work, so long as it isn't corrosive, and the inside of the computer 
isn't visible." OK...that's sort of what I was thinking, but I was hoping for 
something slightly more specific. So, anyone got any inside dope or insight on 
this?
