Help on fixing some acrylic

[dcforester1]

I have a skimmer I have to put together. What should I be using? It came apart at a joint, where the tube connects to the base. Can I use epoxy, super glue, or Weld on? Both pieces are acrylic. Im in Malden, does anyone know where I can get it, or have some to sell?
TIA Derek

Weldon #16 for a repair like this. You can get it at altec on B street in boston. It's kind of like runny toothpaste.

Do the peices fit back together, kind of like puzzle peices? If so it should be an easy fix.

IIRC Jbishop has a thread somewhere where he did pretty much the exact same repair.
Edit, adding link. Not much in this thread, but you could probably PM Jarod to ask how it came out. IIRC he fixed it up just fine.

Chuck, Thank you, I ended up getting some yesterday after work, before I checked my comp. It seems like it took. I will just have to wait and see.
Thanks again Derek
