    Repair???

    How would one go about repairing a broken badge? The damage is superficial with the hinge having come off teh back of the badge. What types of "stuff" would be advised in its repair?

    Many thanks in advance as it is an important piece to me.


    Thanks!

    I would take it to a jeweler and have it soldered.

      Durability of solder...

      Is the solder strong enough to hold it together? Also I have two others that were broken and I have the pieces from them luckily, one is a black wound badge ans the other is an Infantry Assault badge, what should be done with those? Liquid Steel, would that work?
      Thank you for your suggestion Tyler!

      Many Thanks!
      Rolf
