Any suggestions including:

1) Rebuilding snapped off lugs

Stick em back on. This

"UHU Model-Making Glue Allplast" https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B000KTBLOA/

works for me, on many plastics. It's a diffusion weld glue aka solvent weld
glue, i.e. dissolves the plastic parts at the join, they mix, and the solvent
evaporates, the parts are now welded together. (The above leaves behind some
gummy bit that holds the solvent in place for longer, AFAIK).

The chance of making lasting repair is about 90%, IME -- let the join dry for 24
hours, though.



This looks very powerful stuff. The utensil bowl is a clear hard
plastic, looks and feels very similar to glass (polycarbonate? I don't
know much about plastics). My wife has found the piece that is
broken.

But -- a replacement bowl is £5. That glue is expensive. I have at
hand:

Gorilla Contact Adhesive
Wickes Extra Strong Multi-purpose Adhesive
Loctite Super Glue
and somewhere I think a bit of old epoxy (in the twin tube dispensers)

Any opinions. (She's on a third replacement)
