I have an older 3 drawer cabinet that has a split part way through the top at
the glue line. What is the best way to release the rest of that joint so I can
clean it out and reglue it. I suspect it was done with hide glue. Most of the
rest of the joints in the piece will need to be reglued because they are dried
out, and have came apart.

Thanks!

Well, you could put the hole mess into a sauna or steamy bathroom for
a few hours and see what happens... ;-)

FWIW,
