Filling & redrilling wood screw holes
 
Is this in the custom made 36 foot lobster boat or the 25 foot fishing boat?

Let us know so we can contact the manufacturer directly for you. LOL!

There is no 36' Lobster Boat.... ; )

ps - his wife is a social worker. I never understood why he was too
embarrassed to accept her degree and had to make up a doctor doctor degree.

By the way, there is no Santa Claus, Easter Bunny or Great Pumpkin. ; )

My stereo speakers are attached to black wood stands. The speakers are
tall and thin (electrostatic) and the stands are needed to prop them
vertically and keep them off the wall.

Over the years, the screw holes in the base have enraged, and the
speakers are now a little wobbly. So, I'm going to refill and redrill
the holes.

Do I want to use something like plastic wood or do I want to use epoxy
to fill the holes? Which would you choose and why? The filler material
will not show once the speakers are re-attached tot he stands.

Thanks!


I would use epoxy glue to secure wooden plugs ... dowels(oak would be nice) or
match sticks would work... depending on the amount of looseness.




Hmmm. Thanks...I like that.


A 'proper' way to do it would be to drill the wallowed out screwhole
to a slightly bigger size, put some glue in the hole, then tap in an
appropriate sized dowel. You more than likely don't even have to wait
for the glue to set before rehanging the speakers.

If you are using wood plugs, use toothpicks, not match sticks. Matches use a
soft wood, toothpicks are hardwood. Cut the point off one end and drive the
pointed end in.

Use pieces of dowel, drill the holes out the size of the dowel, being
careful not to enlarge the hole. Rough up the dowel a little with
sandpaper, this will allow the glue to seep into the dowel some, and
swell it up in the hole. Use two part waterproof wood glue, apply
liberally to the dowel, then tap into the hole, not to worry, it can
be cut flush when dry. Then, redrill.

Please show us how you know this to be fact. Or, is it just
speculation on your part?

The proof was when Harry turned down an easy $10,000 for a minutes worth of
work, just as he turned down another $10,000 to show his wife has two
doctorate degrees.

$20,000 for 5 minutes work and he turned it down.

Yeah Bassy, we believe he owns a custom made 36 foot lobster boat. LOL

Especially when he made a big deal out of you not accepting a bet for $1,000
to prove he had a Parker.

Do you honestly think THAT is PROOF? Because someone turned down
money, that makes your allegations FACT? Damn, you are dumb.
