What's new

Broke the handle on my scuttle, Mighty Putty to the rescue!

I knocked it over one day after shaving while trying to clean the "work area". I thought the worst when I heard it break, but thank God it was just the handle. My scuttle was in 3 pieces.

I've used Mighty Putty to fix it as seen in the picture. I dare not put this into the microwave again till the Mighty Putty gets very dry and 100% zero moisture. I've let it dry a week, but some of the Mighty Putty still needs more time to dry out better before using in a Microwave. The scuttle is good enough to use now though and the Mighty Putty holds the handle in place just fine. I'll just have to transfer hot water from something else into the scuttle for now. I've seen and heard what wet Mighty Putty does in a microwave and I surely don't want that to happen in my house.

When my Dirty Bird arrives I'm thinking I'll rig something like this up.

Hopefully a bit more sophisticated.

I'm always knocking things off my restricted basin space onto the tile floor.
