There are two types of pins that hold handles on. First remove the pin that once went through your handle with the wire cutters and hacksaw. If your handle loops are parallel to the top and back of the case (Illustration 2), you will need to dig out the old tool box and find a pair of heavy duty wire cutters or a hacksaw and a small ball pean hammer. I highly recommend the steel reinforced handles for banjo and heavy guitar cases. (Illustration 1) If the new handle through the loop and back up through the buckle.There are two types of emergency handles available: standard and steel reinforced.

Tap the serrated end with a hammer until the pin is in all the way. If your handle loops use the serrated pin system, slide the smooth end of the pin through the loop posts and handle first. The serrated pin will need a little brute force to remove while the peaned pin will fall out easily.Next, slide a new pin through the loop posts and your new handle. The other has a head on one end and a slight hollow that is peaned over on the other end. Such handles have buckles on both ends and all you need to do is slide the end of force fit with one serrated end.

The block of wood absorbs some hammer shock and keeps the pin from bouncing on the floor. Place a small block of wood on the head side of the pin. Slide the pin through the loop posts and new handle.

With the rivet heads removed, the latch will fall off. The bit should be a little smaller than the rivet head. This prevents the drill bit from wandering when you drill. With a center punch or a nail, punch a little dent in the center of the rivet head. Removing the rivets that hold the latch down requires drilling the heads off. This will give you plenty of room to work the rivets.

The hardware for all cases made since the ’60s is still available. Don’t take a chance on spare scrap metal scratching your instrument.Your new latch should fit exactly in the same place as the old one. Throw the stems out immediately.

If you have exactly enough, chances are one will fall on the floor and roll down the heating register. Always purchase a few more rivets than you think you will need. They make good replacements since they are fairly easy to install, require no special tools, and they are very strong. Set the latch aside and drill new holes in your case using a drill bit the same diameter as your new rivets.Split rivets are usually original equipment on cases.

Most of the time you can tap the rivet tines flat with the ball end of a hammer. Slide the blade between the tines so it looks like “B” in illustration 4. Use a large flat-blade screw driver to start bending the rivet tines. A new rivet looks like “A” in illustration 4. Slide one split rivet through a hole.

This is the perfect time to let your spouse or the kids help you out in the workshop.Once the latch is solidly in place, reattach the case lining by smearing white glue (Elmers is my brand) on the inside of the case shell where the lining was attached. A third hand is very helpful to hold a wood or metal block on the rivet end while you tap. It should look like “C” in illustration 4.

This is your clamp for gluing your case back together.The preferred glue for this job is clear epoxy. You will want two lengths about 15 feet long. The width of the rubberband should be about 2 inches. Instead of tubing down the river, cut the tube on a spiral to make the world’s largest rubberband. Go to a tire store and ask for an old truck inner tube. Remove the tape after the glue has dried overnight.The last common case repair is regluing the case top or back to the sides.

Long cure epoxy will give you the extra time you need to wrap your band around the case. If you are not a frequent epoxy user, pick up some at the hardware store.Five-minute epoxy is recommended. I use ChemTech T-88 (available from ChemTech, 4669 Larder Rd., Chagrin Falls, OH 44022) ChemTech epoxy comes in half pint containers for about $10. In the case of old epoxy, it will not fully harden. When glues get old they don’t behave the same way they do when they ace fresh.

Before you mix up glue, a “dry clamp” is always in order. This will make for a better glue joint. (Illustration 5) Go around the case as many times as you can. Wrap the band tightly around the area you are gluing. Tie one end of the rubberband to the case handle.

Keeping the case in a warm spot in the house will help the glue cure a little faster. The fumes are not strong, but they are not good for you.Let the epoxied case dry for a day. I also recommend having good ventilation when using epoxy. Your hands will feel sticky for a while, but no harm is done. Wash well with soap and water.
