Subject: [Leica] what glue for broken off M viewfinder foot?
From: Christer Almqvist <chris@almqvist.net>

I have unsuccessfully tried to glue the foot back onto my 21 mm 
plastic Leica viewfinder. First I used a cyanoacrylat glue (comes in 
very small tubes and is supposed to glue things together in next to 
no time) and then I used epoxy glue (that is the glue where you mix 
two components), but nothing worked.

Has anybody out there managed to glue the foot back on, once it has 
broken off? Using what type glue? Or any other trick, like glueing on 
a third party metal foot. Looks does not matter, but it must work as 
I  cannot afford to lose the viewfinder.

Thanks,
Chris
