How to Fix a Beyblade

Repair Plastic Component

• 1

  Disassemble the beyblade so that all the components are in the track or a bowl.

• 2

  Hold the broken plastic component in your fingers and fit the two parts back together like two pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. If there are large gaps in the crack between the two surfaces, the fix won't work. Buy a replacement part.

• 3

  Drip an even line of instant plastic cement on the bigger piece of the broken component. Quickly but carefully press the smaller broken fragment into the plastic cement. Use slightly more cement than necessary, but don't gob it on. Hold the two fragments firmly together for as long as the plastic cement packaging says it takes the adhesive to dry.

• 4

  Sand away the excess adhesive with an emory board, taking care not to sand away the plastic of the component.

• 5

  Reassemble the beyblade and test it in your launcher. If it instantly breaks again, replace it.

Repair Metal Component

• 6

  Place the two metal fragments, after disassembling, in a holder so that the cracked mating surfaces are jointly touching.

• 7

  Turn on your soldering iron. Wait for the tip to get hot. Dampen the iron tip with a damp sponge to remove solder from previous usage. Melt a tiny amount of solder to the iron tip to improve soldering performance.

• 8

  Touch the surface where the two fragments broke with the hot iron tip to heat up the metal there. Touch your solder to the hot metal surface--not the iron tip--to melt the solder over the cracked surface.

• 9

  Turn the metal fragment around and repeat the previous steps to join the solder to the other side of the metal component.

• 10

  Reassemble the beyblade. Test launch it in a duel against another beyblade to see if it breaks at the same place again. If it does, replace the component.
