size=3>Joe,<BR>Thanks for replying.<BR>(CA glue was used on a 'triage' =
situation
I had recently, where powder post<BR>beetles had eaten through much of =
the
action on a M & H from Florida.<BR>I used glue, and used up much of =
my
supply of Webb's wood rebuilder to fill<BR>in gaps and patch together =
the back
action. Long story.)<BR><BR>Personally, I would also prefer a method =
that would
allow me to take the<BR>flange off of the rail and repair it.<BR>But, =
short of
converting the rail, I wanted to do something to reinforce =
the<BR>existing glue
joint and configuration.<BR><BR>I appreciate everyone's responses. =
Thanks!<FONT face=Arial size=2>"</FONT></FONT></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>"Triage" is definately a whole =
different "kettle of
fish"!<G> However, if you've ever tried to get parts back to =
normal, after
CA, you'll really think several times before using it in this sort of =
action
situation. Believe me, it ain't fun undoing that!<G> Your original =
post
gave me the impression that you were "rebuilding" this thingee in the =
shop. In
that case, I'd, at least, put screws in each flange. I've found that =
sometimes
I'll simply "eat" some extra work, just to make it right with future =
work,
(customer advised), in mind.<G></FONT></DIV>
