Hi all,
What is a good way to repair a stripped or slightly offset screw hole for a retry? For context, I'm hanging up guitar hangers in the house, and I made a couple of boo-boos (blocks aren't quite level), so I want to fill and redrill the holes. It needs to be strong enough to hold a guitar without concern.
My first thought was Timbermate, but I realized it might not be load-bearing, so to speak, so I've shied away from that. If in fact it would work fine, that'd be great; I have a syringe that I can fill up with filler just wet enough to be able to squeeze into the hole, let it dry, and good to go.
My next thought was drill out 3/8" hole, glue in a hardwood (oak) dowel, redrill the screw hole, and call it a day. I'm sure this would work, but it'd be nice to find a solution that might be less noticeable should the hangers ever come down.
Thanks!
