I have a really nice Montecristo 300ct desktop that was dropped on the bottom corner which resulted in the front and left side piece to seperate leaving a crack the length of the humidor top to bottom. The crack is about as wide as three to four index cards. My question is...What kind of glue should I use to seal this crack that won't leave a lingering odor?

I would think you wouldn't have a problem if you used Gorilla Glue but, I would PM Volusianator (Wade), he is one hell of a carpenter and would probably be the best one to advice you on that my friend.

Make sure you apply it liberally and clamp it over night. You can find the glue at any woodworking store. Call HD, they might or probably do have it.

Titebond III is thinner than II. You may want to consider if there will be any gap to fill. Either way, once you apply the glue and clamp it, wipe the excess off with a clean, wet towell of some sort. If you let it dry, it'll be hell to remove. Both Titebong products are fantastic. IMHO Gorilla glue is very messy to deal with due to its expansion. Get it on anything and it's going to be a mess to get off. It will hold though. Can you post a picture?
