Left Foot Shell Repair

Last night, R2's left foot shell took some damage, so I did a quick repair today.



A little Oatey PVC glue is all I need to reattach the top of the foot shell door frame.



I debated about whether to cut a new pivot stick that got bent last night when it got fed into the drivetrain, but in the end laziness won out again, and I bent it back straight (more or less) and reattached it into the door.



Good enough for me, for now at least. Droid #2 has aluminum foot shells, and I think I need to seriously consider replacing the PVC foot shells with aluminum ones on droid #1 as well. It should be pretty evident this is not the first repair I've had to make over the last 16 years.
