BadBob Posted April 2, 2020 Report Share Posted April 2, 2020 I cut a puzzle yesterday and after it was finished I found a crack in one of the pieces. If I had seen this while I was cutting the puzzle it would have gone into the kindling bucket and I would have started over. However, this one did not show up until the puzzle was completely finished. the crack does not go all the way through and the puzzle has been coated with an oil and wax finish. Does anyone know a way to repair a crack like this? I was thinking about trying some thin CA glue. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ike Posted April 2, 2020 Report Share Posted April 2, 2020 I would take some sawdust from the same piece of wood and mixeing it with a clear drying glue , Fill the crack with it and when dry sand it and it should be almost invisible .IKE OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveS Posted April 2, 2020 Report Share Posted April 2, 2020 I think I would stick with a drop of thin CA and light clamping until it sets. Just my $.02. Steve OCtoolguy, Scrappile and Wilson142 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norm Fengstad Posted April 2, 2020 Report Share Posted April 2, 2020 i agree with steve, thin ca glue poured into the cack and allow to dry or use an accelerator OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sycamore67 Posted April 2, 2020 Report Share Posted April 2, 2020 I would use wood glue and a tooth pick. Very gently pry is open a small but and work some glue into the crack. You can work a bit of glue into the crack and should fix it. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
