I crushed a leg off my fiberboard bedframe a few years ago when i was transporting the pieces for a move. Figured i had nothing to lose by just gluing and clamping. I probably kept the clamps on for 6 months, afraid if i took them off the bed would collapse. 6 years later it's still holding strong. Good luck. If the first attempt doesnt fix it then there are always more options to try again to add more stability!

Most people are saying fresh xacto blade, and they are correct. But it also may require multiple fresh blades. A blade gets duller every inch/mm/hot dog it is used. So some projects and some materials may require multiple fresh blades for a quality cut. Then you save the slightly used blades for projects that don't require as perfect a cut, or for materials that are more forgiving to the blade.
