Came across this YouTube video of a method for repair broken plastic parts.
Thought some people trying to restore their vintage systems might find it interesting.

Brilliant isn't it 😁 I did a repair using the method Akbkuku shows on a 1999 Fujitsu lifebook where the cover of the LAN / Modem ports had broken up - that's a moderately strong part now. I need to do something similar with an HP omnibook 800CT where the bottom casing is all broken up, superglue didn't work, but this method should reinforce it well.
