They should've used duct tape instead. It's much more durable.
Heck, they could have used
chewing gum and it would have been better! (I keep picturing the Three Stooges or Jerry Lewis or Abbott and Costello doing it and ALL of them went for the chewing gum!
)
Is that made out of gold? They could have just used a propane torch to weld it back together.
Hmm. Might be a bit of overkill there. From the sound of it, these guys might have managed to burn the place down around them while they were at it!
There are
scratches on the chin now from where they tried to
scrape the epoxy off.
Normally, such repairs are made with materials that can be safely removed without damage to the artifact. Chewing gum
would have been better!
