while not the "traditional" method, I think that the people complaining about this are actually missing the point. Kintsugi is, at heart, the art of joining together a broken piece and giving it new beauty. just because you didn't use the traditional materials doesn't mean that this doesn't follow that philosophy.

I totally agree with you!!! The “traditional way” takes days. Some people want to use it for the philosophical meaning in therapy or ministry. The “quick way” can be educational while simulating the concept. It’s can be powerful in its own right while making all of the necessary disclaimers.

That was actually a really big problem when kintsugi was becoming popular back in the day. People were breaking old pieces of pottery to have it repaired in the kintsugi style as it was worth more broken and repaired than it was whole.

And for anyone here: JB Water Weld is foodsafe:) It will set underwater and is made for potable (drinking) water and can be used for repairing broken water pipes, among many other things. Gives 25 min working time, so one can blend just enough as one goes along. It’s smart to piece it together as shown here.

What if you glued it together and while holding it, you wiped it really hard so that the glue left a dip before it dried, and then once it dried, you use paint to fill the dip made by the missing glue and the wipe the paint flush with the piece?

Awesome video! Tha ks so much for showing us this method! JB Weld is GREAT! I use it for all kinds of things, and it's very strong. Just FYI everyone in KZfaq land, I tried to JB weld a magnet, once and the epoxy MOVED. YES, JB Weld is magnetic. SO, don't even think of using a vessel with JB Weld not on the microwave, as it will throw sparks. Ditto for the not using for food or beverages as the OP mentioned. There are food safe epoxies out there, but food safe paint might be a different thing...and not sure I want to microwave any kind of epoxy or use it for food. Again, thanks for a great video!!

I loved the result of this! It’s such a beautiful art form. I have a question about the strength of JB weld... I have a favourite coffee mug which has a broken handle.

I too, have been looking for a more budget friendly alternative to the "real" Kiintsugi method. To repair an inexpensive item (that has sentimental value only) with a $100 repair kit just isn't going to happen. I appreciate that your method results in a very fine gold line So many of the "kintsugin" methods I've seen result in a gloppy gold lines that I find are unattracitve. Nicely done.

I love this so much. Last christmas, my cat knocked a porcelain reindeer decoration off a shelf and shattered all the legs. It was part of a set of decorations that belonged to my grandpa. I tried everything to fix it but it just wasn't looking good and the legs weren't strong because tiny shards were missing. I packed up all of the broken pieces and told myself that by this December when I unpacked the decorations again, I'd figure something out. I think this will be a perfect way to fix it, especially because the set is white porcelain and gold leaf with no other colors and the kitsugi will really look on purpose. Thank you for the great technique!
