Hello:

Have a pretty old wooden chair where the dowel like supports (that go
between the legs) that help hold the legs together have come out of their
holes in the legs.

Very confused over what adhesive I should use when I push them back into the
holes.

Would you suggest an epoxy ?

Or, a "Hide Glue", or one of the Elmer's products, or... ?
Why ?

Thanks,
Bob




I've switched to Gorrilla Glue for that application and I'm sold on it.

Just remember to keep wiping off any of it which bubbles out of the
joint while it is still soft.

It's pretty near clear when it cures, but an anal inspector could still
notice a fillet of glue if you don't wipe the excess off.
