Reattaching Cedar Panels

[Labman]

I recently bought a humidor from CubanCrafters and in transit, one of the cedar panels came unattached. I was wondering how I should go about reattaching the panel. Should I use super glue or hot glue? Maybe even carpenters glue? Any ideas?

Use a polyurethane glue (like Gorilla Glue). Its waterproof and super strong so the humidity won't matter, and neither will the flexing of the box due to temperature variations.

Only use a small amount on the back of the board. You don't need to cover the entire back of the cedar board, just a small dab will do.

I just used Gorilla Glue. Like spiffy said don't use alot. Put it twards the middle because it expands some as it dries

I'd return it. CubanCrafters is pretty good about standing behind their products.

I would return it...but being in northern Canada shipping the humi back to Miami and having to wait for another one would take a while not to mention cost a pretty penny. I've written to CC and told them about, so I'll see what they have to say before going ahead on my own. But more than likely I'll attach it myself.

Spiffy, thanks for the advice on the glue. I might have to try that out.
