[QUOTE="Enkee, post: 649911, member: 5072"] Also, I would suggested trying to glue the original part itself using acetone (not glues), before going for 3d printing. Also, the tab can be reinforced with any ABS. That ABS can be taken from a plastic box, Lego part, plenty of places. If acetone dissolves it, it is ABS. All you need is a flat piece. Cut the shape of the original ear. Shred the cuts into a small bottle with acetone to turn it into a slurry with some mixing. Use that slurry as a glue and weld reinforcement with your broken-glued ear part, leave excess to dry around corners and sand when dried. It will hold better then the printed parts, w/o extra expense and risk of experimentation with wrong filaments. [/QUOTE]
