    What fell off? A good seal is made by the moistened wood of the lid and lip of the bottom fitting snugly into each other. Dry wood makes no seal, moistened wood swells and makes a good seal. Are the joints loose because they are so dry or cut poorly? You could nail the cedar in place with SS finish nails and avoid using glue all together.

    To be honest I have to agree with just returning it and not bother fixing it. I have a humidor sitting in my room now that is waiting to be sent back. I tried to save some bucks and I now it is just going to cost me more because I have to pay for postage back even though I get a full refund. I should have known better...... I now have a well made humidor on the way.
