Repairing a stock

[donr101395]

Who would you recommend to repair a cracked wood stock? It’s on a family heirloom so we don’t want to buy a new stock. Even if we did they aren’t available.

Where is the crack and how bad?

Two cracks down the side and not really sure how bad they are.

Guy at Oak Ridge Navarre did a co-workers stock with a huge crack in it and did a good job. Maybe 1-2 years ago. I couldn’t tell afterwards it was damaged. It took him a while to get to it though if I remember. Good luck

Think you might be able to open the cracks some and get some titebond glue in there? Then use surgical tubing or some way to clamp it together? I dropped this one, made me sick, but managed to do an ok job getting it back together .

The last time I had to repair one basically squirted wood glue into the cracks and then wrapped a plastic bag around it, used a shopvac to pull the bag tight, pretty much pushed the glue in.
