The copper bracket for my Gottlieb Groovy Play Unit has the tip missing (A-13670). Pinside Marketplace and a few sources (including Pinball Resources) don't have this part.

This is expected. How would I repair it? Take it to a local welder? Epoxy a tip and file it down? All suggestions are appreciated.

The Player Unit is very heavy, with 5 cams and a lot of switches. Two small brackets on the top and this one at the bottom. Would epoxy bond with the copper?

Thank you "too-many-parts" and the brazed suggestion.
