Re: broken louvre

Louis - I would think that simply trying to glue the "spine" at the 
crack would not be sufficient. I believe that several vendors offer 
reinforcement straps that are scalloped to fit the louver, and fasten 
to the center spine with bolts. They replace the strength lost due to 
the crack. A friend of mine had a similar occurrence, except his side 
rails cracked (long story). I fabricated some braces from some 
inconel strap material that I had, and bolted them in. Worked great.
