A friend of mine gave me and oak chair to repair. The back of it is an arch that has been steam bent. For some reason about a 1/4" split loose at the begining of the bend. A friend who has a restoration business said that injecting glue in the crack and clamping it wouldn't work because there is too much stress. He suggested using an epoxy to fill it.
This brings a new set of problems because it would have to be sanded down and then the stain would have to be matched (oh boy what fun).If anybody has done any thing like this I sure could use some ideas.
