Cover broken

Post by jek7galo »

Folks, I believe this is problem for all of us and in Brazil is not easy to find Voyager's parts, I needed to make a "Voyagertherapy" with the cover storage compartments and cover air pressure, what easily broken because it is plastic .

Image

Initially I isolated the cover with tape and leaving part that receive glue, I used one piece of umbrella cloth as a hinge which has a good flexibility and I pasted on the cover.



Image

Pasted another piece of plastic over the cloth to stay better finish

Pasted the piece broken over the cloth

Dont have the same rigidity, but this functional and well fixed :thmup:

I hope been helped
