Damaged the cork on my j pen blade handle. Where can I get replacements? And how do you put it on?

Megaspin has a cork kit. I'd try this.... Or I'm sure Ebay has something.

Never glued on new cork pieces myself but I'd imagine you'd want something super strong. Perhaps gorilla glue or something. I'm not sure. Perhaps others will have and idea of what's best.

I don't think anything really, really strong is needed. Contact cement would work fairly well for the sheet bits. And I'd use Duco cement to attach the handle. Once dried, it's quite strong, but you'll be able to remove the handle easily without damage using acetone.

Gorilla glue is too permanent and then it can only be cut, sanded or scraped off with a great lot of work. It also pushes pieces around very strongly due to gas bubbling action as it hardens so you have to clamp it with screw clamps not weights or spring clamps or the pieces can shift and not stay where you want them. Then they are crooked forever unless you cut them off. Use something simpler and solvent removable like titebond or elmers or Duco like Iskandar said.

If you want a new one, you can get it from ttjapan. I just bought two sets.
