RyanY:
A couple things to consider would be moisture lost to evaporation and moisture absorption upon contact with the wood. I’m not sure how that would impact any absorption of glue particles into the wood. I’m also not sure if hide glue is even small enough to fit into wood other than larger gaps in the grain like the early wood. I know PVA glued only interact on the very surface so I wonder if hide glue is similar.

Selfbowman:
Ryan I hear ya. I know that the wood opens up With heat. Just was wondering if glue of some kind might be a fix  for the compressed belly. Also this is a good thread that could have other questions I guess.👍
