Anyone have suggestions for making my own wood filler?
I am making white oak furniture and have a few small gaps and nicks I

need to fill. No store bought products seem to be working very well.
A woodworker friend suggested sanding some white oak and mixing the dust
with 2# Shellac to make a paste. Another friend claims that will be too
shiny and I should mix it with something else.


Mix glue and the sawdust from the project your gluing. works great! But

you
may have a hard time getting it to take stain.


Use hide glue.
