Weld it?
I wasn't kidding about welding it....My buddy who is a welder welds alot of things, one time he took his washing machine apart and found the plastic part cracked. Part wouldn't get to his house in a few weeks so he had an idea. He got a coffee can top's plastic cover and cut a strip out of it and next he held the cracked part together then used a torch and heated the plastic and then filled the crack with the cutted out coffee can top to melt it with the plastic. He said it worked like he was welding any steel and it held on and still going strong over six month.... That made me wonder if the waders can do? I don' think doing the coffee can top but heating (with the soldering gun if you have one) to melt it back?
