Just as the title says. Not sure how to filx. If I piece it together with smalk nuts and bolts or rivets, I am worried the ash catcher will not fit anymore.
Open to advice, especially if it already happened to your kettle.

Drill holes through original attachment points, use rivet gun to re-attach,
Of course if you don’t own a drill or a rivet gun with rivets, it might just be cheaper to go online and buy a replacement part.

Theyre pretty easy to replace. I’d try your nuts and bolts method first, but if it doesn’t work, just replace it

Just use a sheet metal or tech screw

I recently went through this. After shipping and tax The replacement ring was going to cost me around $98.00
I bought a used kettle from marketplace for $50.00 just for the ring and pot. Used the parts to repair my kettle then gave the marketplace kettle away.

Provided you have a drill to make the holes, get your butt over to Northern tool and get a $10 pop rivet gun kit on sale. I was just there a couple of weeks ago and managed to score a $30 grease gun for $5 on blowout and then they had a tube of my favorite grease but it wasn’t in the system so they gave it to me for free and the grease itself was worth more than $5, lol. I love that place.

Id just go the nuts and bolts route personally, cheap and easy fix
Warranty, ash catcher may not be covered though
