You should ask for a refund on your speech recognition software!

It's finger recognition software.

That's an excellent suggestion Colin. A few weeks ago I had to tow my
digger across Europe. Because the bucket sticks out behind the trailer
it has to have a long load triangle fitted. I got one in polycarbonate -
the same material used for cold frame glazing but it was floppy and
folded up when towed at 60. I got some aluminium track and bonded it to
the plastic using "Mammoth" tape. Like carpet tape but much stronger.

Clean the surfaces carefully (I used meths[1]) apply the tape to one
surface, peel off the protection strip press into place. You only get
one chance, the bond is as strong as epoxy.

It's sold by Toolstation as "power grip tape" it is available in 25mm
and 50mm widths in rolls of 2.5 metres for £2.50/£4.50 respectively.
