Hi Andy and all....

I used locktite brand cyanacrolate (crazy glue) on my bandswitch that 
was broken in half.

I used an old ceramic tile that I broke and reglued then I put it in the 
microwave

for 5 minutes on high.

When I took it out I had to use oven mitts as the tile was too hot to 
handle bearhanded.

I tried to break it and wound up breaking the tile away from the 
original, reglued break.

I did this while still hot.

I glued the switch and reassembled the amp.... Still working a year 
later.....
