STRIPPED SCREWS
Don't you just hate it when your wood screws fall out of the balsa or other wood because of a stripped hole? Here's one method of taking care of that little dilemma. Force a tightly rolled easy hinge (or similar material) into the hole until it's flush with the wood surface. Now, saturate it with thin Cyanoacrylate glue. This hardened "bushing" will accept screws without being stripped out. Good applications include hatch or cowl fixings that must be removed frequently.
