hammerrite Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Im Very new to fossil collecting and I'm not sure how to proceed. I'v popped a nodule in two and want to know. Do I glue it back together then prep it? Or do each half separately? Success is the child of failure. Come on shark! You call yourself the king of the jungle?

Auspex Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Depends; what's in it, and what is the nodule made of?

Northern Sharks Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 First question, what's in the nodule? It would be best to glue it back together, then prep. If you go the other way, something could happen and the fit together will not be as tight and seamless. Simple, original formula Crazy Glue should do the trick.
