I have just had my old Hanimex 1500RF slide projector out to view some old

The top casing is held onto the base by about 6 screws that screw up into
moulded pillars in the top casing. Most of these have split and no lionger
can accept a screw.

I am left wondering how to keep the top attached to the bottom. Any ideas?


Duct tape.

No, PVC electrical tape stretched slightly before fitting. Either around
the seam, or a few strips perpendicular to it.
