Apply the epoxy to the cracked area of the knob and hold it together while drying with a pair of needle nose pliers. To attempt to fix the cracked or broken plastic knob yourself, you can use epoxy glue. This should make it possible to cook in the meantime. Get a firm grip and turn the pliers in the direction (HIGH or LOW temp) to set the temperature to the appropriate heat. But first, to get the stove or oven to work for now to cook, get a pair of pliers, remove the knob, and grab the temperature knob shaft.
