    Not sure if I can get this together long enough to print a replacement. Just posting for grins while I wait for final reply from customer service. They had asked for a pic of the part.

    I was thinking that, super glue or plastic weld. Don't think super glue will last and the epoxy will be easier/quicker than plastic weld.

    Glue it up then print new supports so you have spares. There's a couple on thingiverse and I have an untested design I'll put up tonight so you can take your pick.

    Sure, waiting on filament to arrive. Ran out of the sample and didn't use the right epoxy so will have to redo the repair.

    Came out great. Just a bit too tall for the robo though. At least in regards to the side with the switch.

    But I guess I can move that screw remedy that instead of cutting the support down to fit.

    Also the main hole is a bit small. (Stay out of the gutter lol)
