Any epoxy that might save this?

No words... Few days after receiving it...any hope? I am in Europe, so local glass blowers are hard to find...snapped of clean, so maybe maybe an easy fix is possible, like transparent epoxy of some sort?

Hextal would likely be your best bet however it isn't cheap and I don't know about the availability in Europe. There's a thread here on FC but here's the link: http://www.conservationresources.com/Main/section_34/section34_21.htm

I use clear Aquarium silicone repair. Ive used ATV Silicone with a heat rating of 500 degrees. It all works great and a lot cheaper than that $60 stuff. I've repaired several pieces for less than $5

Thc for the tips.

Can get hxtal for no less then 130euros hihi, that is more then 150dollar. Could order 3new pieces for that, if the exact bong

The other option I will explore. If I get it fixed I will post pics.

Buy this. That other stuff probably cost as much as the piece

Got something similar of eBay. Will be here end of next week.

When you apply it use a very thin layer. Don't apply to much pressure the glass is more fragile there now. Just make sure you snug it. Then let it dry for 24hrs. I like to use a fan to blow over it. Also get some sand paper to remove the excess dry silicone when it cures around the Crack. I always sand away the excess then apply another layer to the crack for added strength and repeat drying and sanding process. Then a really nice 24hr 90% alcohol soak. So a 3 day process for a solid repair for me. 2 if I skip the second seal.

Some folks on FC have suggested Gorilla Glue as a non-toxic glue for glass. Dont remember where i read it. Anyone else?

Ordered some clear epoxy called gorilla glue. Guess it will do the trick and should dry completely transparent.

Will let you guys know next week!

I know nothing on the subject. But I break enough glass on my own to want seek a solution for myself.
Started with a search for 'food safe silicone for glass' and got several hits. Then I read some Amazon reviews for a few of these sealants. There has to be a fully non-toxic solution for this out there. Plus their is so many unique ways to break an expensive glass piece, AMIRIGHT?

So there is a wide range of product that would be food safe and waterproof in some manner while avoiding products meant for hardware and cosmetic fixes, like say gluing a vase back together. I would avoid the hardware section and see what the kitchen department of the internet has to offer. The suggestions that have been made in this thread might very well be food safe already, just not packaged as food safe for their application. But felt I had to start with the food safe answers first. Some of these products I found during my search are for sealing walk-in refrigerators and food service equipment that have glass windows. Others are for things like making cake molds. Maybe we all should make cake molds out of our water pieces for insurance?Or just thickly coat all our glass in silicone epoxy?

From my google search.
What kind of silicone is safe for aquariums?
Selleys Glass Silicone is an acetic, acid-curing 100% silicone, which has excellent adhesion to glass and has been especially formulated for glazing and aquarium construction. This aquarium safe formula locks out water and forms a durable seal that does not shrink when drying.
