New Members Jessdesk Posted February 5, 2016 New Members Share Posted February 5, 2016 Hello everyone, I found this forum because I have a very nice ammonite set, sliced in two. My young daughter was dusting and knocked one half down breaking in in 3 pieces. Is there anyway to attach them back together; I am just sick that it is broken.

Auspex Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 If the pieces fit together well, gel 'super glue' would be your best bet.

Ludwigia Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 (edited) If the pieces fit together well, gel 'super glue' would be your best bet. What the man said...but if it's in 3 pieces, better practice fitting them together beforehand before you apply the glue and then glue all three at the same time and press them firmly together so you're sure they fit perfectly.

New Members Jessdesk Posted February 6, 2016 Author New Members Share Posted February 6, 2016 Thank you. I was so upset, because they are very clean and crystallized. The light went through beautifully. What is another good place where I can buy more fossils like these? I got these from our annual gem and mineral show here in my town Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
