In ,
Rembrandt Kuipers struck the keyboard in a random fashion
and came up with:
The handle to the lid of our steamer has broken off. The contact area
is a narrow rim along a 12cm by 8cm oval. It is made out of plastic.

Does anyone have any pointers on what sort of adhesive would be
appropriate? It needs to withstand high temperatures (up to 100
degrees Celsius) and should be non-toxic (food safe). You should be
able get it wet and stick it into the dishwater too.

Removing the lid with no handle on it tends to lead to scalding...


Go to a Car Accessory shop (probably NOT Halfords) and ask for JB Weld. Good
to 600 deg C. Its a 2part epoxy (similar to Araldite) which is non-toxic
when cured.
