I just broke my thumbwheel at the hinge area. it separated at the corner one side only. to look at it doesnt look broken until you pry it slightly.any advice on the proper adhesive? if not repairable does anyone have a new one for sale?

I put a thick piece of foam from a door insulation kit behind the thumbwheel to stiffen it. I never glued it but I bought Gorilla super glue for it. I also bought a spare thumbwheel. It's been about a year and it still works! Actually better than the original because it's firmer and easier to use.
I have a thumbwheel in stock. E-mail in profile. G
Don't remember exactly how I did it, but I shimmed mine with cardboard and a small piece of wood on the side that was broken. I also ordered a new thumbwheel, but the old repair is working better than new so I haven't used it yet. Got the thumbwheel from MTH, but I see above that others have them as well. Getting the case open was the worst part, another reason I haven't installed the new wheel yet.
thanks all..will try a repair..if not i will contact GGG for a replacement.
