The yellow Elmer's wood glue is really great.
I use it when assembling Japanese shoji screens.
If you try to pull the joint apart after it cures with time, you usually splinter the wood grain near the joint but the glued joint just not come apart.
I usually will not try to take the wooden bottom out of the tube...especially if it is a "virgin" magazine and never has had its retainer pin removed before.
When buying magazines, I will usually look for evidence of such pin removal and will not buy it.
Guys here on the Forum are probably experts and can do so without such evidence...I cannot...so I use the "glue in place" repair with a cracked bottom.
