Broken cylinders can be repaired, minus blue Amberols, which tend to shatter.

I've never had any luck doing that. How would you recommend going about it?RolandVV-360 wrote:Broken cylinders can be repaired, minus blue Amberols, which tend to shatter.

I don't have any experience with the process, but I know there are some vendors at the Wayne shows that repair your cylinders while you browse the rest of the area.Hyperion wrote:I've never had any luck doing that.

Re: WANTED: Looking for a few cylinders
These are not merely cracked, they are in many pieces. They need to be replaced. And they are common cylinders -- replacing them will be much easier and cheaper than sending them off to be "repaired." If anyone has any or all of these, please PM me. There are others I'd like to replace, too. Thanks!
