Default Repairing Bakelite

Anyone experience of repairing Bakelite? I have a piece about 7 inches
square which has snapped in half. Thickness about 1/12 of an inch. Plan
is to glue the two edges and hold together, then add a plate on the
underside - brass, or possibly plastic, glued in place.

A vintage radio site suggests Araldite as an adhesive - unless anyone
has a better idea?


Epoxy works but do support the join with the added plate.
