Intro: Repair Leg on Elsa Doll

This is an easy repair.

Needs on Saber Saw, masking tape, UV glue, Builders Bog (plastic body filler), sandpaper paint and paintbrush.

STEP 1: Cutting Body to Remove Leg for Repair Using Saber Saw

Mark body with a marker pen to see where to cut. Use a screwdriver to pry and break open and seams.

STEP 2: This Is Part to Remove

This shows part of the body to remove to get at leg

STEP 3:

This is the broken bit of leg. I use UV glue to stick back together.

STEP 4: Replacing Part Back in the Leg

Placed repaired part back in the leg.

STEP 5: Filled Repaired Part

I filled repaired broken part with Builders bog. and let harder and sanded and smoothed to get ready to fit back in doll

STEP 6: Put Leg Back in Palace and Tested Movement

Once leg in place and moving I used UV glue to hold body part that had been cut out. Then filled body cuts with Builders bog and sanded till smooth and ready to paint

STEP 7: Painting

Once the body was smooth enough to paint masked legs and painted. I had to repaint all of the swimsuit so matched.

STEP 8: Finished Product

Be ready to do this again for the other leg. My repair can't break due to Builders Bog filling part
