can my ocarina be repaired!

Postby Mbside on Tue Dec 16, 2008 7:38 am

Hello guys I'm not sure if this thread goes here, well this is the problem, my little sister droped my oc from a table, and the mouthpiece has broken a little bit, I have the little piece and it fits perfect and sounds good when I put them together, but one part is gone, I mean, its mashed.

is there a way to glue the parts? by know I have put them together with masking tape. is there another way?

P.S. its sweet potato from songbird oc's, i'll try to upload some pictures

here is the big part

both parts together, you can see a little piece left, is what i said before that has mashed

I have repaired ocarinas with a dab of ceramic glue.

what ceramic glue? you mean the one that comes like powder or the one that comes in little tubes throwing little drops of glue? sorry I don't know anything about this, I just play my ocarina :?
