   This I think will part of the solution. Now I need to find a screw   
   that's the same diameter and thread as the original short one but is 4-   
   5" long. That, plus gluing the broken bit and maybe supporting it with   
   some wire wrap, and I think it will be stronger than the original.   
      
   Good thing the fridge can still be used in this broken condition while   
   I/we figure it out.
