I use hot hide glue. I've never used Titebond. The builders and repairmen I know who use titebond use titebond 1, instead of titebond 3. It could be because titebond 1 is easier to dis assemble than titebond 3. A repair like this is just begging for hot hide glue because it doesn't creep, but it isn't worth the equipment (a glue pot) and the learning curve for 1 repair.
