We have of very minimalist nest of coffee tables.
The tops are purely glass and are only attached in a "floating" style to the chrome-finish legs (actually just a square frame each side) by means of a small block both sides. So just two metal blocks each of an area around two square inches. So not much area IMO, and one has become detached.
It looks like some kind of glue was used to stick the glass to the metal block, so I scraped it off with a razor blade and tried super-gluing it back on. No good - detached again after a couple of days' use. Next I tried some left-over epoxy I had - might have been specifically labelled "for plastics". Seemed to work OK for a few weeks, but eventually came apart again.
So what might work better? I think epoxy is available labelled specifically "for glass" and also some "for metal". But which should I try? It appears the last lot stayed stuck on the glass, but came away from the chrome block, which is surprising because the metal side has a faint ridged circular pattern of grooves engraved on the surface, so I would have thought the adhesive could get good purchase on that.
The other legs/tables have stayed stuck on fine, so there must be some kind of adhesive designed for the job that was used originally.
