fireplace Accessory Stand with a spinning problem

[mudpig]

Hi All,

I have a fireplace accessory stand that has a problem. Usually when the arm spins you can just tighten the nut underneath and the problem is fixed but not with this one.

The nut and the top nob are both completely tight but the arm that should hold the tools still spins like a top. So I was wondering if there was a type of glue/adheisive that would work with such heavy items leaning against it. Or if my little craft sodiering tool might work.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Take it apart and slather Epoxy on the joints that you want to glue together.It will never spin again.It will be glued for life.

Epoxy is the Worlds best friend!

I fix everything with it,LOL!
