There are a lot of different ways to repair a damaged catcher and this is the first catcher that I have plastic welded with a soldering iron and some plastic from a plastic Victa discharge flap that was used for plastic welding rod.
I don't recommend this method unless you have a difficult to find catcher and you want the catcher to look original when repaired.
Some images of the catcher may help others to decide which way they wish to restore a catcher as I've never seen images of a plastic welded catcher before.
