My OM digital camera was dropped onto the floor (not by me!!!), and the plastic flange that holds the battery door shut broke off. I got out the JB Weld and put it back on, building up a bit of a support on the underside (but not in the way of the lever)...and all is well. JBW's native color is a perfect match for the dark grey OM uses. Great stuff.

They advertise that you can seal a crack in an engine block successfully...I wonder if that's true.

The stuff is probably useful for repairs to plastic-fantastic camera bodies too. Unlike liquid glues and epoxies, there's no worries about the stuff unwanted migration to internal parts.
