tyvm for all you input. i'll go and get some hide glue and try that. thx again

I broke off a piece of my new sitka top. After i'd shaped bothe the outside and insides, and the f-hole were cut and the x-brace glued. the break is on the cut away side, form the outside point of the f-hole stright up. then from the lower f-hole straight down. the break is in 1 piece and very clean. can i use CA glue, to glue the top back together, then glue the top on and continue as normal (well as normal as i can be). or did i just make some expensive firewood....;o(

thx all i from northern idaho i helped a guy with a couple of tops and backs, so i feel ok doing that. (i hope) the neck will be the hard part, i think. i try to play alittle too, i hope that will help with the feel part of it....lol i guess thats why i'm here, hope to look for tips, and a shoulder to cry on....hhehehehehehe
