    A friend of mine, who has done lots of restorations, swears by baking soda and super-glue as a filler. I have not tried this myself.

    Just saying that two people that are professionals in any field will not always agree on everything, so no reason to trash the thread over something as stupid as preferences in wood glue.

    I hope Gorilla Glue isn’t bad as I just ordered a small tube to fix the foot on my Egyptian Walking bowl.

    Wrong glue. 5 minute epoxy would be a better choice for ceramic.

    Well, I can try the Gorilla and if it doesn’t work then order the epoxy. Thanks.

    Gorilla glue, unless clamped, will expand significantly as it cures, depending on formulation. this will force the pieces apart, and yes, I know this from experience.

    I am sure Jesse still remembers how to form one, but I don't think he has worked with that material since he was a construction foreman for King Tut.

    I agree that gorilla glue is not the best when you want a tight, fine seamed bond. I've used it many times and it does foam up and push things apart. It has its place, but not in repairing a fine piece of ceramic pottery/artwork.
    For rig details, see my profile. Nothing here anymore...
