We've got an Ikea bin. One of the coil springs has broken.
Can I get an exact duplicate from somewhere or can I somehow repair?
See pic below, I tried cutting a safety pin and was trying to somehow attach that to the broken end of the spring:
Is there someway I can weld/forge the 2 bits together without needing extreme temperatures!
Like some sort of glue? It would definitely work. I tried joining with some duct tape and it solved 25%... but nowhere near the full original.
This image shows the spring as it should be:
Hoping someone can suggest something!
In the meantime, I'll contact Ikea. They do happily send you spare screws and other things.
Problem is that they don't sell this bin anymore.
Thanks.
