So my buddy's cowbell lost its clapper tonight. I know it's not an uncommon problem, so how does the pack repair theirs?

Ancient Bulldog proverb says: Better to lose the clap than to catch it

It is just a fishing weight. Walmart has them.

He also lost the rod that the clapper is attached to the bell with. Basically all it is is the shell of the bell. He had actually broken it before hand and had improvised a fix involving a spring loaded keychain type thing (I don't know what it's called) and a nut. But that broke tonight.

Fishing weight or big nut and a piece of clothes hanger. Clothes hanger isn't as strong, so JB Weld the clapper and the clothes hanger wire.
I put JB Weld on my clapper anyway. Keeps them straight and they don't hang up.
