Insert Plug to Repair Holes in Furniture

Video Transcript

"Now that we have our screw replaced and our hole counter sunk out to accept the plug, we're going to put a little bit of glue on it and just pop it in place. I like to use a good quality woodworking glue that is not waterproof glue. That would be an exterior glue. And, we want to use glue that can be dissolved by water. In case, in the future we have to take this plug out. So, I'm just going to use some standard white woodworking glue. And, put a little drop of glue. You don't need very much at all. Just a little bit around the edge. And, we'll stick the plug in the hole like that. And, take our rubber mallet. You want to use a rubber mallet, not a hammer. Because, a hammer will make a dent around the chair leg when you get down to getting it flush. So, we just give it a couple of pops with the mallet. And, wipe the glue off. You'll probably want to use a little damp rag to wipe the glue off. And, set the plug down in there real good. And, there's your plug back in the chair."
