I use a lot of superglue wood turning. You can take "splated" wood with worm holes and fill so it won't come apart when turned. Interesting patterns when finished. Wood that crumbles in your hand can be solidified.

However when we apply the superglue we turn down for a fresh finish outside. Gunstocks trying to save original finish it's not a good choice. Seeps through spots you did not expect and impossible to remove.

Recently thought I could get away with it on a Hunter Arms forearm that pulled the screws out. Drilled punky wood out and superglued plug to hold better. Superglue found a very small crack leeched through to the outside. Now it has a ugly drip in the checkering. Only cure is a full refinish and checker.

So it depends on the job. Good stuff in the right spot.
