Bit of plastic ring with 3 internal springs and wedges that grips the
disc
but comes off the metal spindle with the CD. Other than dot of superglue
and
capilliary flow into the join , any recognised way of refixing? Reminds
me
of those ex-juke box 45rpm singles with adaptor for home use
I always just put a tiny drop of superglue on the top of the shaft, and
then
press the turntable back on, having first determined what the correct
height
setting is, as the turntable tends to grip to the shaft very quickly ...
Don't overdo it on the glue though, as you don't want to press any down
the
shaft and into the top bearing :-\

I tend to find superglue is some sort of super-fluid , almost totally
lacking in viscosity and migrates along interference fits rather too easily.
As occuring in a laptop drive, the bearing would be only just below the
platter.
