Yeah, looking online, if I were to attempt this, I would probably opt for an of-era horse glue or similar resin, but the biggest problem with gluing wood with an identifiable surface characteristic (such as the old, weathered, heavy matte gray look) is that the squeeze-out can be impossible to clean. You can't sand these things without it looking sanded, and the antique gray would have it's surface forever smoothed and marred even with careful pulling up of the excess.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]258308[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Yeah, I think that might be the difference between a "hand plow" and "hand cultivator". {shrug}[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
