[QUOTE="Airguitar, post: 988409, member: 23004"] I did a bakelite repair recently to a radio where I used a ratchet strap to pull the crack closed, applied masking tape on the inside of the cabinet and then ran CA glue into the crack from the outside. Several applications until the crack was filled. I also wicked the CA glue into the masking tape for some reinforcement on the inside. This seems to add a good amount of strength. I would like to try it again with some kind of crepe tape or cloth tape. The general idea worked well and looks like it could be refined to make it even better. Sorry, No pic available. Good luck!!
