    I use West System marine epoxy for stock repairs and extensions, however no glue will bond well to oil soaked wood even after rigorous degreasing. So I always back up the repair with dowels, tenons or slip patches, just as an armourer back in the day using animal or alphatic wood glue.
    Keep Calm
    and
    Fix Bayonets
