[QUOTE="wslimbo, post: 1471220, member: 282957"] OK so heres an update. Seeing as the old clamshell was useless if i was replacing it i thought i would try to repair it I used slow drying epoxy and allowed it to cure for 72 hours. I actually used epoxy on the break point and glued the screw in place aswel. Reassembled and wallah! Good as new. There doesn't seem to be any stress on the joint atall so i think it will hold up.
