Attempting epoxy kintsugi -style repair of my deep space nine hotjo mug. I hope it works! Looks reasonable so far. But I need it to cure then coat it with food safe epoxy.

I ordered a second hotjo mug, thinking that way I'll definitely have one to drink out of if the repair fails. It arrived broken too, so I sent it back.

Now getting a mug is no longer just a vague desire, it's a full on quest!

Success! I am finally enjoying raktajino* in a slightly more appropriate mug. The third try worked!

*Decaf instant coffee with five spice powder because it's seven pm and I enjoy being able to sleep.

@discontinuity omg where did you get that ratkajino mug?

@awfulwoman eBay :D I had an alert for hotjo in Europe and it seems like they get posted every few days. My alerts would come to my email at 4am and when I checked at noon they were usually already gone, but finally it worked out for me.

I paid like less than 20€ for this so it's totally reasonable.
