    Hi was wondering a good way to fix wooden stripped screw holes on the bottom side of the play field? I've stuck tooth picks in the holes and broken them off flush in the past but was looking for other suggestions. Wood putty? Bigger screws? Any help would be appreciated - Thanks!

    Thanks for the ideas/tips guys! Think I'll try the kabob and glue trick. I'll let u know how it turns out....

    I used the bamboo skewers and glue method and it worked great. The stripped hole was for a standard flat blade / hex head wood screw. Golf tees and chopsticks would have been to big in this case. Thanks again for the idea/help!
