My dad said to use a dab of super glue on the cracked plastic part of my coffee grinder

I was ready to buy a new one, but he told me to try it first. I cleaned the crack, put a tiny bit of glue in it, and held it tight for a minute. It's been three months and the grinder works like new. Has anyone else fixed something with super glue when they thought it was trash?

Totally get this. See it all the time with tech, people toss stuff for a tiny crack. Fixed my favorite headphones the same way, and my mom's picture frame. We're so trained to just replace things now, but half the time a two dollar fix does the job. It feels good to beat the system a little.

Right? It's like a secret life hack. I fixed my old game controller with a bit of super glue last week, works perfect now. Feels way better than waiting for a new one to ship.
