how to undo this mistake?

Is there anyway to remove 2 panels once they have been glued and bonded
together (dado joint)? The joint has been dry for about 24 hours now. Is
there a special solvent that can dissolve the glue? Water?

I don't want to have to trash these 2 cherry panels...they cost mucho $$$

Thanks

Vinegar often helps soften standard WW glue. Else, you have some slightly
smaller pieces for a future project.

I swear, the people on this newsgroup are become more and more stupid
and simple-minded. Jumbo, you are at the center of this degradation,
you asshole.

That doesn't make any sense, JOAT.

I can't assume what glue you used, but yellow carpenter's glue should
soften up when water is applied. You may need to use a wet rag and an
iron. This will raise the grain of the wood, but it can be sanded
smooth.

I think I would try heat first. How about a hair dryer. Yellow glue is
thermoplastic.

Olde English, sort of. I'm not sure the contraction (minus apostrophe) is
correct. Perhaps more accurately:

Thou did not sayest what glue thee used.

I could certainly be wrong, as I claim no expertise. However, the sentiment
is appropriate. Different glues have different solvents, so the type of
glue matters.
