Comment on Quick fix for cracked plastic clip: thread wrap and superglue

Here’s another way that might work for you.

Get some PLA or PETG filament from a 3D printer. Just a few inches worth. Put it into a dremmel - leave only a half inch or so sticking out. Turn it on and you can spot-weld plastic with it. The 3D filament will basically heat up with the friction when you turn the dremmel on and press it into the clip.

PETG is harder and stronger than PLA, but both should do the trick.
