Is this P83 Strainer Repairable?

Posts: 1 Threads: 1

The threaded ball has come apart from the slide plate of my P83 strainer (from my 1968 Ludwig Jazz Festival kit). Is there any way to repair this, or am I just gonna get screwed buying one.

Looks like you'll need a new one, unless you are micro welding expert.

I've got one like that. I was able to put it back together and re-peen it but it is not very strong. I am going to try to solder it to see if that will hold and if that doesn't work I am going to drill and tap it for a small flat head screw. I figure I have nothing to lose.
