I fixed some seams with...get this...crazy glue! It turns out that Crazy glue works great for this repair.

Run some painter's masking tape (the blue stuff) along both edges of the seam so that all the exposed wrap is protected. Then squirt some Crazy Glue (cyano-something or another...I used the gel) into the seam and then get some decent clamps and clap a piece of wood that's long enough to run the length of the seam (be sure to put some protective wood scraps on the inside, too so that the clamps don't mar the shell or the bearing edges). Make sure the wood is stiff enough to overcome the brittleness of the pulled-up wrap (I used a piece of solid maple) and clamp the wood down, along the seam positioned so that the entire length of the pulled-up wrap gets flattened. Try to get even pressure along the length of the seam, but don't over-do it or you'll run the risk of delaminating the shell plies. Leave the clamps in place for several hours. After you give the wrap and glue enough time to kind of "melt" together, you can remove the clamps and see if the glue held or not. You might have to repeat the process for stubborn areas.

That's what I did and it worked fine and is still holding strong!

Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it. I'll most definetely do that as soon as I get the chance.

I've got another question, where can I get the original wingnuts for the tom legs,bass drum spurs, etc.?

And, if I can't get the original winguts, where can I get some that size. The ones from home depot that fit that thread size are way smaller.Thanks!!

A needle and syringe can be very useful trying to get small amounts of glue into those hard to get at places (sounds like a ad but you get my gist).
