One of the fixtures under my TZ fell off last night and after trying to screw it back on, the holes are totally stripped. What's the best way to fix this kind of issue? Wood putty? Toothpicks? Just got this thing working properly, so of course the holes are now the issue.

A heard that blue stuff, loctite is good. Anyone use that?

I'll definitely try the toothpicks first, my only concern is the the screw has to go through a hole in the metal fixture and I'm not sure if there's enough space in the fixture for both the screw and the toothpick. Thanks for the tips guys!
