Gorilla glue worked well for me on some teak pieces that needed restoration. What kind of wood are you gluing?

yup Gorilla glue is some serious glue....dont forget to read the directions if you have never used it before
because you need to wet the parts first to get the glue to activate.....dont worry about the glue that foams out and bubbles up out of the joint it chisels and sands away easily....
