Homer:
also- careful of that spring hanging on by a C H..... those suckers can take off like a rocket.. Knobs are cheap, you can always drill a new hole and bolt some angle on that head but it will break again.... Once one goes, the others usually follow..

Sbrem:
there is just something about cast metal under stress that makes me nervous...

JB Weld will work *but* I would drill mating holes into each surface and insert some stainless pins to reinforce the JB Weld repair. This will add shear strength.

You can build JB up past what needs to be patched and sand/file is down to make it look pretty.

Add some plastic net sleeves over those springs to keep them tamed when they snap.



OR:

Call Workhorse and fix it right?

 :D

Workhorse actually also added and sold sheet metal covers to add safety for spring snaps like 15 years ago

Evo:
Looking at Workhorse's parts pics, seems like you can saw the spring anchoring arms off the print head, buy part 81006 and drill/tap a couple holes to mount it.

Knob 74011 is an easy fix.

Viola, as the kids say.
