[@peterantoinette5451]

Super helpful Alec! Especially crack filing. But how casually you said "just peel off the face" to then make the fix. Wow.

[@AlecLaCasseArt]

Excellent tips here as always. Thanks Alec!

[@ArtCrouse]

How does the repaired area take different finishes? Do any of the standard finishes attack the glue area?

I just take a piece of bark some 80grit sandpaper make a little pile of sawdust . Then I take the superglue make a paste like wood filler then fill the cracks. I learned that from Rich Jenkins the whimsical house carver.

Hey thanks for doing this video. I have some makonde pieces broken during travel. I was wondering if I can use the same method as I have fime dust. Any pointers?

[@davecobb4025]

I know they make a spray to speed up drying, do they make a spray that slows down the drying ?

I am a carver and something I don't understand is why carvers don't use Mohawk colored stick epoxy. I have used this product for years you can't beat this stuff, you can the colors in a few min. You can rock and roll. I can't figure out why you guys don't use it. Try it it's wonderful
