Hi Lori,
The Brannens repair this type of thing all of the time using =
superglue (if the crack is not too big). They have been quite successful =
using this technique and the end result looks beautiful - as if nothing =
ever happened. They're method seems a bit less drastic than installing a =
band.
They're in Tue, Th, and Fri, 8:30 - 4:30 Central time. =
