Title: Is this fixable/worth fixing?
Post by: mattcoll12491 on May 12, 2011, 01:22:59 PM
I was going to put this up for sale this morning as I'm a little strapped for cash this morning. But I came to take photos of it and I noticed that under the tape on the toe that a bit had broken off. No idea how this has happened, but I haven't used it since last season, and I wasn't the last person to use it... So I could guess what may have happened.

So give me your views on what could be done about it (Apologies for the poor picture quality, I am no AlanB! And of course the messy floor)

Have you got the piece that came off? Just glue it with PVA, clamp it and then tape.

No I don't unfortunately, as I am not entirely sure when it happened. Is there anything I can use to fill it?
