Without knowing what the actual damage is, it's hard to say, but "No." will cover 99% of the possibilities. If you've broken the shaft, there are epoxies for metal, or welding, but neither is likely to be a viable option.

From experience, the smaller kitchen appliances are rarely worth the cost of repairing. However, if it's within1 year old, and you still have the receipt, take it back to the shop and ask them to repair/replace. A "meat grinder" should not break just because you got a small bit of bone stuck somewhere, and usually these things will be covered by either the manufacturer warranty or the consumers guarantee act.

The shaft came out of it's plastic top. As far as I can see it is a straight round shaft which the plastic top hung on to. There may be a glue which would hold it tight?
I tried to get all the bone out but I missed a bit. I see another atachment has a wider casing so wouldn't have jammed.

Mine crapped out chopping almonds and dates- the mini processor part. I saw on the breakfast show that their big processors didn't like chopping these either. Expensive lesson.

I glued it with a 2 part epoxy resin (metal shaft to plastic gear) and so far going well.

It is a throw away world we now live in. Suck it up and go buy another one.

I think the vacuum cleaner may be broken too!

Yep it is a sorry state of the times and definitely a throw away world. That is because we are always looking for more enviromentally friendly things to use as landfill. LOL LOL LOL

Stop blending bone maybe?

I was only using one attachment for everything but now I use a wider pureing one (a small piece of bone shouldn't catch it).
Is still working with the 2 part epoxy holding the shaft. Is a 700Watt blender and cost about $160(?)

I've been through 2 Kenwoods as well so changed to a panasonic this year. I make basil pesto throughout the summer & I find the lid doesn't line up with the top of the blade. So as it wears out it stops driving the blade around. The stick part is fine but the tiny processor just doesn't last.
