    I have the older ABS+PLA Heated bed model.

    I went to go print something and heard a cracking sound. View the photos for a better description.
    The first thing I did after seeing this was taking the carriage apart. of course the part cracked all the way through.

    Only reason I am posting hear is I have heard the robo team is kinda slow on responding to emails (nothing against them, sure they are quite busy.)

    I would be up to printing a new part, but my printer isn't operable (duh...).
    Is there a specific glue I can try and use?
    Or any other suggestions?

    That sucks. An acrylic glue, like Weld-On 4, would probably be a temp fix. Hope they respond soon!
