** I might be tempted to make a 1mm thick aluminium disc with large hole to fit over the broken gear. Then fasten it with numerous 2mm or 6BA nuts, washers and bolts.

Repaired a few broken plastic things with similar re-enforcing plates.

Worked for years afterwards.

That the item is of low value makes it more rewarding.




Phil has the winner for me, I have local fastener company, that would
find me a washer or two I could work with, but aluminum is so easy to
work with, your choice.


** Guaranteed to work, long as 1mm extra thickness is not an issue.
