In all honesty... I prefer that the crawler made the plunge rather than you... I hope epoxy glue is not to expensive in the Uk...

Damn dude that sucks. I had something similar happen to my scaler but the drop was only 8 feet. I had to completely rebuild it. I rebuilt it better than it was to start with. Best of luck to you on the rebuild.
