I hate things that are made out of Plastic. Anytime you have a metal screw going into something made out of plastic it's going to break eventually.
The only type of plastic that I have had that didn't break was the type that they use to make the "RubberMaid" trash cans. That stuff is flexible and strong.
But I bought a rubbermaid square box container with matching lid. Then last winter we had an ice storm and the ice formed on top of the lid about 2" thick. I had the box in the back of my pickup truck sitting outside for three days. When the storm was over I went out to get the truck and noticed the ice sitting on top of the rubbermaid box. I tried to push the ice off the lid and then tried to break up the ice. The lid cracked under the pressure and I was disappointed. Even the rubbermaid type plastic breaks when it's extremely cold.
I don't have a mojo but I do have a quiver rabbit decoy and it's made out of the same type of plastic as the mojo decoy. I took a 5 gallon bucket and filled it up to the top with peat moss. Then I can stick the plastic stake into the peat moss when I want to setup the decoy. I can sit on the bucket by adding a swivel bucket camo lid to the deal. I used this 5 gallon camo bucket seat when I last went dove hunting. I carried all my shotgun shells and other supplies inside the bucket for that hunt.
I purchased a 2 new sets of eyeglass frames this last month. Had to have the store put on new plastic soft nosepieces. The tiny screw that holds the plastic nose pieces is metal. But the metal screw is fitted into a plastic nose piece holder. So the first thing that happened is the metal screw was screwed in too tight and stripped the plastic threads. Now the screw is not tight and probably will fall out sooner or later. Then one pair of my new 90 dollar frames will be rendered useless. I need to take the frame back and get another frame. Again I hate things that are made out of plastic.
JB weld is great but it won't always hold onto slick plastic parts. You have to made sure that you clean the plastic of all grease and oily substances and then rough up the platic with some sandpaper so that the JB weld can stick to the plastic better.
I have yet to find any good glue that will weld plastic back together after it's broken.
How many things did you buy that were made out of plastic that broke and you had to throw away.
When I think of Plastic I am reminded of the movie "The Graduate". Anyone else remember the line in that old movie about Plastics?
