Re: Closing structural cracks with hide glue

I do not have enough experience repairing cracks to venture an opinion as to which glue is best to repair a crack in a clarinet. However, I do have a problem with any automatic assumption that the method that has been used for the longest period of time has to be the best.

When I started driving, tire technology had undergone many changes from the time Charles Goodyear wrapped a natural rubber tube around the wheel of his son's bicycle. We could reasonably expect to get 30,000 miles of wear out of a tire if it were maintained and handled carefully. I would venture to say that a tire getting only 30,000 miles of wear today would be laughed out of the market when compared to ones that easily get 100,000 miles or more for roughly the same relative cost.

Which glue is best for repairing your clarinet? I don't know. However, I refuse to jump to a conclusion on which one it is simply based on how long it has been in use.

Why not simply agree to disagree on this subject and let go of it?
