It has been my favorite way to make a good insurance policy so here it is.  simple, low cost, effective.  Not failed yet!  butt ?  This is from a cell phone and trying to figure it out? Bear with me

As I'm new to phone send it on Alan's site only one picture was sent...  it's as follows...  use a round double cut file and rough up the next inside of the plactice or metal.  Then drill some holes as shown....epoxy as usual...  wipe excess epoxy 2 x w acetone n let set.     The holes are riveting the seat to the blank.  Work great 👍🙇‍♀️🚤⚓️

In addition I will use nylon cord over an epoxy coating with some nylon dry wall mesh tape to get the desired fit as shown below.  Good insurance !!
