Edge just came out yesterday. I'm thinking I'll cut the edge just above the missing teeth. Add epoxy, clamp down the rest of the edge that is sticking out, wait for the epoxy to cure and sand it down smooth with the base and sidewall? Any other tips? I tried

Thanks dawg, I'll try something similar. I've heard the screws can actually fuck up the edge so I might skip that step or just put the screw in between the teeth.

Yeah that’s what the tutorial says to do. Put them between the teeth. Works well if you do it right. Just make sure you have the right size screws and let’s everything set up real nice with goood epoxeeeee

When the core isn't shot I've put the edge back in, welded it back together and sealed it with epoxy. I've had it be where it wasn't even noticeable. And then another time where it was alright. Tried to do it with cracked cores before but if that's why the edge it broken it won't last.

Probably not the proper way to do it but it's worked for me

I had a similar problem, and I ended up doing a gnarly edge replacement and base patch. I'll post some pictures if I ever get around to it

Nice. You gonna put a base patch in or leave it all uneven like that?

I just put the old base back in, I'm not too worried about the uneveness and I sealed it with ptex. If it does happen to come out I'll put some type of filler back in so it's even.
