cobblers.keys Posted July 23, 2023 Report Share Posted July 23, 2023 What is the best way to secure a 4'' x 2'' trophy plate to a cylindrical bakelite cup base? The one I have come in the shop has got double sided tape sticking them together but it's "sprung off" one side. It needs to be engraved each year with next winners name and year etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Count Muppet Posted July 24, 2023 Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 Either screw it on or use long nails and fold them over on the inside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobblers.keys Posted July 24, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 Thanks count, do you know what the long nails/pins are called so I can get some? Standard trophy pins aren't long enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Count Muppet Posted July 24, 2023 Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 I don’t know i thought they were just called trophy pins maybe you can use the ones that you can get for sewing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobblers.keys Posted July 24, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 Good idea. I managed to use a Dremel drill bit due to small hole required and use standard trophy pins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted July 24, 2023 Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 B&Q sell frame fixers, one in each corner should sort the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k4mrc Posted July 25, 2023 Report Share Posted July 25, 2023 I usually bend around the long last, which over bends it and then it snaps into position cobblers.keys 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
