Repairing cracks
 

Ive read lots of endorsements for acraglas to repair cracked stocks but have never used it myself. Regardless, Brownells is out and has been out for months so I am looking for experience based endorsements for alternative, epoxy type glues.
In boatbuilding, if you preheat the wood then allow the epoxy to set in a cooling atmosphere you get less bubbles and the wood sucks the epoxy in. That has been my experience but also seems viable for a micro cracked stock wrist. Obviously the wood needs to be properly prepared and as free of oils as possible.
The wood in question is nearly impossible to photograph to the level of detail to see the cracks, things may look different when the finish is gone but the fine gaps are also of concern.

Thanks in advance.

Aaron,
It looks like the "Pros" haven't seen you question yet. I use Satilite City Instant Glue. It is a cyanoacrylate and comes in different viscosities for varied applications. Works well for me.

I also use the acrylics as Bob suggested. Work well penetrating on fine cracks. Woodcraft stores sell it in three viscosities.

Glad you guys responded to his question, I may have the need for that myself

Thanks for the endorsement gentlemen. Ill do some research.
Harold, assuming you bought Sam Houston's ph 16, id say you may need some glue as well.

Aaron, if it cant be fixed with duct tape and zip ties it's beyond my capabilities.

Look up a glue called "Hot Stuff" on the internet. I have used this for very fine cracks on stocks with excellent results.

There is no shame in knowing your checkbook is your best tool.

There is a cyano based wood glue that has the consistency of water and is clear that works great on those micro-fissures. It flows really well into the crack and cleans up easily. Found in hardware stores.

Mike,
Does the Titebond product eat the finish like others or is the finish prserved?
