Hi again,
 
I have cracks in my cockpit combing boards.  I have plugged all 45 holes,
sanded and refinished the original boards.  I think the cracks resulted from
my poor installation that caused some shear stress that I will fix on the
reinstall.  My question is how to repair the cracks (some about 16" long) so
they don't reappear.  I thought of adding a few butterfly joints but have
also seen metal rods placed perpendicular to the grain inside the wood.  Any
suggestions?
 
Thanks,
