   syringe. available from any woodwork supply house or catalog.however, if the door is already glued up, the new glue has no purpose other than looks.

   Buzz,

   I'm not sure you can by a syringe from a Pharmacist in this country without a perscription...in case you were going that route...

   I've used a plastic soda straw with fairly good results.

   Woodcraft used to carry (perhaps still does) a sort of heavy duty syringe called a glue injector.  I got one of these and have used it several times.  It is amazingly effective.  I used it to inject glue into stairway baluster joints.  It is incredible how much glue you can force through a 1/32"  hole with this thing.  I filled each baluster joint to overflowing with it (you can tell by the crackle sound when the joint is full).  I only need it occaisionally, but find it useful when I do have a place that needs it.

   BG,

   It depends on the state you're in.  Some states allow people to buy needles and syringes without a prescription, others do not.

   Alan,

   Thanks, I wasn't aware of that...thought it was a Federal rule.  I imagine in Manhattan getting them for free is easier than buying...lol

   Buzzsaw,

   As already mentioned, working glue down into an existing crack won't add to the strength of the panel nor is it likely to keep the crack from spreading if the stress that caused the crack still exist.  So if your only reason for trying to get the glue in is to hide the crack then it would be easier to use a wood filler.

   That said, if the crack goes all the way through the panel you can place the tip of a shop vac hose on the back side and use the vacuum to draw the glue into the crack, it's an old trick.
