 Dowel or screw - Mapmaker
I have a dining chair (mahogany, antique) with a crack in the back vertical piece at the point where the seat joins the upright.

Do I drill a hole and insert a dowel and glue it, or do I drill a pilot hole and use a long screw instead?

Part of the join will be going across the grain, part along the grain.
