Hi James, You could always just glue a small piece of maple back into the hollow. If you get the shape right it should be pretty difficult to see once it's sanded. Admittedly, light coloured woods are...

@james-chacewatergmail-com-2 So could one use syooper glue and wotsit tape instead? I've gotten the impression that superglue and wotsit tape is frowned upon.

Is there a recipe for the mix or is it just pure witchcraft? I prefer to think of it as wizardry rather than witchcraft 😆 You'll need ... one dollop of wood glue and a large pinch or two of s...

Some fine maple sawdust and glue, mixed together into a smooth paste Christy TV! That sawdust and glue trick on your hole (Fnarr Fnarr) is invisible! Is there a recipe for the mix or is it just pure ...
