In the summer my son returned from a trip to Costa Rica. One of his souvenirs was a frog sitting atop a leaf (both in highly polished wood). Sadly, Frog and leaf have parted company and it looks as though they were connected using a gum/resin (there are blobs still on top of the leaf). Question is, how do I permamently reunite frog and leaf?
Thanks,
Paul
Is the leaf thick enough to accommodate something like a small length of wire coathanger etc mating up with holes drilled in both parts then bonded with araldite etc?

Silicone .??
Glue Stick .??
UPVA wood glue
Hotmelt. Gap-filling, not impossibly permanent, no solvents to lift a finish, doesn't care about previous water-impermeable finishes. Stick some newspaper / masking tape down first in case of drips.
Chewing gum. hth.
