I actually have FlexTape because I needed an emergency fix for a leak in a

bay window. It did the job but was difficult to work with and removing it when I had a permanent fix was a total pain in the a$$.

Nothing like VT engineering brains collaborating!**

Can you post a photo? I'm having a hard time visualizing the issue.
MP4VT2004 • 10/10/25 04:32 PM ET
Oh, rub it in.**

Trying to post from my phone...but not sure it will ever arrive.**
EDGEMAN • 10/10/25 05:07 PM ET
It do be like that sometimes.**
MP4VT2004 • 10/10/25 05:15 PM ET
Well, the pipe fix could buy some productive time
TomTurkey • 10/10/25 04:21 PM ET
I choose to not visualize Edge having productive time laying pipe**

Have you thought about building your own mower?**

JB Weld fixed my microwave handle when it broke**

JB Weld has fixed many things in my house.... **

I've looked at the ones that scream, but they're expensive.**
EDGEMAN • 10/10/25 03:03 PM ET
Sorry I already used my free limit of Perplexity doing my job. I hope
jdkhokie • 10/10/25 02:43 PM ET
Since there’s only a few manufactures of mowers, can you try another
Stork • 10/10/25 02:42 PM ET
Looks like Husqvarna owns and makes Poulan mowers.**
Stork • 10/10/25 02:46 PM ET
And I checked both sites for that part number. Neither are available.**
EDGEMAN • 10/10/25 03:00 PM ET
i would say one of the lawnmower repair shops that people are
bigbadbird • 10/10/25 02:35 PM ET
The sketchier the better. I can recommend several in Hopewell... **
Burruss Writer • 10/10/25 03:05 PM ET
this says pipe like you said - i would go with wood becuase you can cut it
bigbadbird • 10/10/25 02:32 PM ET
Silly question ...
vt90 • 10/10/25 02:31 PM ET
Geee. Where did you ever see that?**
IB4TECH • 10/10/25 05:01 PM ET
Its funny you should say that, since JB Weld makes epoxy tape for handles
EDGEMAN • 10/10/25 03:03 PM ET
Put some rebar in it.**
IB4TECH • 10/10/25 05:03 PM ET
TWSS**
bigbadbird • 10/11/25 09:12 AM ET
this guy used that and water hose connector parts - mad scientist **
bigbadbird • 10/10/25 03:14 PM ET
I ordered "regular" JB Weld when I ordered the handle tape.
EDGEMAN • 10/10/25 03:22 PM ET

vt90 • 10/10/25 03:06 PM ET
I wonder if JB Weld would hold it together?**
