    1. I feel like repairing that kind of damage would cost more than buying a new one. But for sustainability I approve your efforts.

      You’re not gonna be able to repair that, it will remain a weak spot even if you somehow manage. That suitcase is gone, get a new one.

      There is a luggage repair place at the bus station in Helsinki

      But I would take this opportunity to just buy a good suitcase

    4. Only way to repair this would be to repair it so it has no wheel anymore. That could be made sturdy with some thicker glass fiber and epoxy combination.

    5. I’m by no means a professional, but damage doesn’t look repairable. I’d look for new luggage instead if I were you.

      There are multiple luggage stores in central Helsinki and most larger malls have them too.

      If you have luxury house insurance or travel insurance, just claim from them to buy a new one during Black Friday. Sometimes, repairing these kinds of things in Finland costs almost the same as buying a new one.

      Buy a new suitcase. Repairs are not going to hold and you will be risking your luggage.

    8. If it’s Samsonite, contact them directly for inquiry. If not, it’s probably not worth repairing either way.

    9. 1. Put a block of wood inside the suitcase.

      2. Screw wheel into the wood from the outside.

      3. Screw block of wood to the suitcase from the outside.

      4.(optional) cover the visible crack with a piece of cloth from old jeans or something and stick it on with glue. When cured it can be painted. This is AKA poor mans fiberglass.
