So just a update, I filled the broken part with wood glue, and put a ratchet strap around it, then drilled a hole through the two pieces, put glue in the whole and then tapped in a wood dowel.. Some glue ran out, but im hoping between this, and I plan on making a base for the bottom with some screws, it's save able... If it's no good I'm amputating his feet! I also did more carving on it in the mean time, trimmed the top up, and did the headdress.. I will also post a pic of the latest moai I carved, and finished... It's super glossy!
