CA glue will penetrate soft punky wood and make it rock hard. Wood turners use it for "splated" bowls. Wood that actually rotten and coming apart. Those natural edge bowls you see, bark on the edges. Squirted with CA before they are turned. I keep it in my shop in 3 viscosity's thin, medium thick, and a special formula intended for toy race car tires that has some elasticity dry. Useful on fly rods tha have to flex.

I don't use it on gunstocks though so thin it seeps into places I might not want, and once on it won't come off no 2nd chances. Total re work save something that's a loss otherwise, it's the stuff to use.

You can get epoxy in different viscosity too. Look at West Systems web site. Others probably as good but West packages and provides technical assistance better than others.
