About 6 years ago, my then 13 year old son had to do a science research project for school. I got him to do it on the widely held belief that titebond will not stick to dried titebond. We assembled 8 test pieces with a lap joint. 4 of them were broken apart after 5 minutes, allowed to dry overnight and then reglued and clamped with no further surface preparation. After curing for a day the samples were loaded in a uniform manner with a bucket filled with sand until failure, then weighed.\ There was some variation but no uniform loss of strength attributable to the regluing. Make of this what you will.
