Ed, I like the idea of a hot metal plate. What I didn't list before was a
propane torch as I have no idea of the flammability of this stuff.
A hot piece of scrap metal might be just the ticket to get the plastic
soft enough to weld..

Thanks
Charlie

Torch is OK as long as the flame does not get too close and melt the
plastic. There won't be any explosions. It will be good to heat the metal
plate though. If you got just the right temperature you could hold the flat
ends on it until it starts to melt and quickly press them together.
