Default Filling an imperfection

On Thu, 28 Feb 2013 20:37:58 -0800 (PST), "Gramp's shop"
One of the maple boards on the buffet projects has a small imperfection. It's a thin -- maybe 1/16th of an inch by 2 inch jagged scar that's about 1/16th of an inch deep. I recall reading that some folks fill such imperfections with CA glue. What's the process? What impact does this have on finishing (assuming use of a wipe on oil-based finish)? Any other suggestions?


I'd suggest using one of these to fill your scar. I have a set and
frequently use one of them to fill indentations larger than your 1/16"
scar.
