Hi

I used a 15 degree radius sanding stick on my OM back, I noticed that I was a little heavy on one side. I didn't think it would matter but when I did a trial fit on the back there is a noticeable gap of 1/33 for about 4 inches, it will close up but needs some pressure. I decided to glue a slim piece of mahogany to the kerf and re sand. I used super glue and now I am beginning to have second thoughts - should I sand it off and re apply with woodglue or leave it ?

The CA should hold.
See if it wants to lift when probed with a chisel.
