    Of course, it may not have been practicable, but properly, it should have been sawn up the crack, planed and butt-jointed. The little rhyme above I got from my friend Norman, a first class cabinet maker. I would put my trust in hide glue in this instance.

    No, put the butterfly across the crack and auction it. I guess England hasn't heard of Georg Nakashima yet...
