[QUOTE="Bez>, post: 404830, member: 6007"] For all our woodwork here we simply use white carpenters glue. Then we clamp it for 48 hours - even though 24 will usually suffice. One of the important things about gluing something together is the ability to knock it apart with a rubber mallet when it comes loose. Sooner or late all glue needs to be replaced - use the wrong type and you end up damaging the wood. In fact I put together an old maple rocking chair a couple of months or so ago - had to knock a few spindles out to clean everything and do a good job. If I was refinishing it I would have just dumped the entire chair in the tank first to work all thed old glue off - but this was just a straight glue job. If you value your chair and know that this job will be repeated in 5 - 10 - 15 years from now - be sure to use the right glue - or you may regret it. If truly unsure, ask someone at your local refinishers shop - yellow pages - they will be happy to tell you what is available locally. Bez> [/QUOTE]
