Default waxy plastic gear repair



"Splork" wrote in message
...
My low tech pencil sharpener has a drive that uses a 2.2" gear to drive
the
mechanism from the motor. The gear broke into 3 pieces.

I can probably repair it but am unsure of the composition and what to use
for
cement/ strengthening.

It is an Amber waxy looking/feeling material and it scrapes like wax.

What is this??

TIA


Knackered, I'd say ...
