minus-squareUsernameHere@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up67·5 months agoI wouldn’t want JB Weld coming into contact with my food. Another approach would be to drill a hole through the handle and surface it attaches to and use a nut/bolt to hold the two surfaces together.

Not to mention the steam condenses on that area and then drains through the food in the strainer.
