I put the lug plate screws in from the inside to the outside and used Titebond III and a large wood jaw clamp and let it dry for a week. Then I slipped the upper band on and removed the clamp. I have since removed the band and the glue held. I hate Gorilla Glue. I used it on some professional furniture structural repairs and it failed. I lost money redoing the failed glue joints. If you do use Gorilla Glue, make sure you wet the mating pieces first(which I had done!). This helps the glue cure. The stuff is messy and doesn't take stain(none of them do).

This type of syringe will help out a lot for getting glue into the larger cracks. Best thing is, TB3 is water soluble so you can just rinse the syringe out with water when your done and you can use it again. You could probably get these at a pharmacy or if you know a dentist he or she could probably give you a handful of them. .
