I have some cast aluminium garden chairs.
The screw holding one of the arms got loose and I forgot to tighten it.

Yesterday the top of the arm snapped off, leaving the screw in place.

I have the arm and the s,mall piece that snapped off.
The ends are clean and thankfully not shiny smooth but bright non-the-less.


If it takes any amount of force, e.g. from someone leaning on it, get
someone to weld it, or brace and glue it. I'd use Araldite slow-setting
were I gluing.

I have now idea what's permissible in NGs these daze, but could you put
pics somewhere and post some means to find them?
