   Personaly I would not recomend this type of fix, because if the host wood is soft or old, it can split. The best way to do it is get acrylic wood filler (it comes in a4 oz bucket or a tube to inject into screw holes) make sure the wood filler is drillable/sandable, and non shrinking/cracking, let it cure for an hour if applied by spatula via a thin surface, or if injected into a stripped screw hole let it cure from 4-8 hours depending on the deepness/ thicknes of the hole, you can pick up a wood filler at you local hardware store or larger chain, for abour $2 or less for a 4oz

   Thanks Fran,

   Your recommendation is certainly another way but may be beyond the ability or resources of some people. Don’t forget that you also need drill bits and a drill for your method.
