Repair Suggestions

By DR4CO, in X-Wing

Earlier tonight I accidentally knocked a Bomber off the table mid-game. The bomber itself is okay, but the peg it was on... less so. it snapped at the top, leaving the "joint" lodged inside the bomber, and there's not enough left sticking out for me to pry it free. Does anyone have an idea on how I might get it out, or is gluing it to the peg the only option?

Pinning it with thin pianowire and gluing it back into place with superglue or epoxy will do wonders.

Try pushing a pin into the broken part of the peg, then using it to pull it out maybe? Even if you can lever it out just enough to get a purchase on it.

Send my wishes for it's speedy recovery.

Leave it off, who needs it. Go with Magets!!!!!

use a very thin drill bit to drill into the remaining part of the peg. then get a thin piece of wire or a pin, place a tiny dab of glue on it and stick it in the hole. wait for it to dry and pull it out. As the meercat says 'simples'.

I've got a friend who'd have all the tools to do that. I'll give it a try.

Thanks for all your suggestions, everyone. :D

Very small needlenose pliers should work too
