Showerthought: I used a dab of super glue to fix a wobbly jigsaw base plate

The plate on my old jigsaw was loose, making cuts wander. I put a tiny drop of super glue on the pivot post, let it get tacky, and reassembled it. It's been solid for 6 months now, but is this a legit fix or a hack that'll fail catastrophically?

Rapid-set mortar on historic brick is a disaster waiting to happen

So my town's newsletter is now written by an AI, and I have thoughts.
