My cousin just asked me to try to repair a wooden giraffe carving he purchased many years ago in Africa. The statue (I think it is about 1 ft tall) fell and broke into three pieces: the bottom of the

You could also use fast setting epoxy and just hold it together. _______________________________________________ Shop-talk@autox.team.net Archive: http://www.team.net/archive

Depending on geometry and size, I have found rubber bands work well. Best to use many small ones instead of a few big ones, as the large ones will distort the structure at the joints. This goes witho

I second the painter's tape for the neck. Apply glue and push it together. Wipe off any squeeze out then apply the tape to the neck. If the joint is rough enough that it doesn't slip, you may be able

If this is a small piece and super glue type glue would work, you can buy super glue accelerator spray, and put the super glue on one part, spray the accelerator on the other part and as soon as you

Rubber bands. Make them just tight enough to hold the joint together and squeeze out any excess glue. They are inexpensive, come in a variety of sizes and most importantly, keep a constant tension an
