5 String Banjo Repair

 5 String Banjo Repair - Neck Broken


 Hi - when I bought this, the neck was broken and had been repaired with contact adhesive. So, in my finite wisdom, I've decided to re-glue in a more robust way - probably with Titebond or similar.

Here's the story so far:




The Victim


Split right through the fretboard






Steaming off the fretboard - use a steam iron

Keep the metal blade hot with the steam

Fretboard removed








































Next need to break the split open - remove adhesive and reglue.
