The strap of my handbag broke and I'm looking to repair it but how? As you can see by

My sister has a stone muffin pan
like this (except it is 6 jumbo muffin cups) that broke into three pieces during a recent move. She said none of the cups were damaged, so any ideas on an oven-safe adhesive to put it back together?

I love these
retro assemblages. Is it plausible to create small metal assemblage sculptures using nothing but patience and industrial epoxy? and if so,
- What epoxies would you recommend?

Thanks!
