Default RE: Glue Question

You didn't elaborate, but I assume we're talking about thin CA. I agree CA, when applied properly, is plenty strong. That's assuming there aren't large gaps, and that the CA was relatively new and fresh. Reasonable gaps can be filled by dusting with baking soda, and more thin CA applied. Or you can use medium or thick CA, and accelerator if needed. Certainly don't reglue the joints with something like epoxy. The weight gain would be unacceptable. Wood glue, like TiteBond, really isn't effective for filling gaps or regluing, in my opinion.
