Shoulder Joint Protection Part 2 Custom Tutorial
An alternative method to using superglue
This custom tutorial was contributed by Darththomas
Hey all, back with a small update to the last shoulder tutorial.
If you have tried out the method in the last tutorial and are now stuck with a load of broken shoulder balls you just couldn't fix or if like me, you found a shoulder ball the previous method will not work on. Worry not because this tutorial shows a different way of reattaching the discs without superglue. So without further ado, here's my quick fix for those shoulders that just won't behave as you want them to.
After doing this I decided I kinda like this method better than the old one.

Don't know if you're going to comment but, what are the dimensions of that screw? More specifically the length of the screw? Thanks man.

I'm not sure what size this one was tbh. I salvage them from other toys, vehicles etc. As long as it's not longer than the shoulder ball you should be good

I'm probably going to be doing this from now on to shoulders, glue alone simply isn't secure enough, and that area is easy enough to fix/sand with a little apoxie, like you show.
