I have a cabinet that has about 8 superfluous holes in the floor. While they don't show, I'd like to patch them up and return the cabinet to a more complete condition. Some of the holes were made by the manufacturer to attach an appliance. Then another item was attached and removed.
It seems to me Norm on "Yankee Workshop" uses little dowels to patch holes in wood. Some of these holes are small, but I've seen some dowels almost as thin as toothpicks. I assume I glue them in. Also, I need to be able to cut them without damaging the finish of the cabinet. Then if there is any indentation left, I use some kind of wood filler? If I recall, once the holes are filled with dowels, new holes could be drilled in the area, if necessary. Not that I'm planning to drill more, but the patch should be that sturdy.
Or Plan B would be to take the MH to Davis Cabinets in Junction City next summer. It's about 50 miles or so from here.
