Hot glue? Could have used screws or something. Something stronger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something stronger. hi Degaselite, it was a easy fix. most people do not realize the costs involved in the mass production of software. to keep costs down, a few glop's of glue does the trick. so its all about costs. lance www.atarisales.com AtariSphinx and DegasElite 2 Quote VIDEO 61 & ATARI SALESwww.atarisales.com22735 Congo St. NE, Stacy, MN 55079 651-462-2500 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
