---------------------- multipart/mixed attachment The procedure is to clamp the area to draw it together as much as possible, drill for the bolts, remove clamps, remove wood chips from crack. The clamps may have to be reinstalled if the crack is wide and the holes don't align straight enough to insert the bolts. Apply glue/epoxy, tighten bolts, clamp in between bolts. It sounds like you didn't get a good draw with the clamps but the bolts should keep it from getting any worse. When clamping with hand screws, use the back portion because it will exert more force than the front. jpg attached -- Regards, Jon Page ---------------------- multipart/mixed attachment --============_-1092740550==_D============ A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
