How to fix a chip in wood furniture?
May 1, 2010
I dropped a glass yesterday on my wood (real wood - not veneer) dining room table -- which caused a chip that is quite large actually and rather unsightly - how do I go about repairing this? It's a cherry butcher block table (different colored strips of cherry laid down) and the chip crosses two different strips of wood - is there any hope? Thanks!

At home depot they have this puddy which is soft then hardens after it sets but if you get that and fill in the hole let it sit for a day or 2 then sand it down you could refinish or paint the table. I have done it before took a while in wait for the puddy to dry and finish’s to dry but it came out like new!! hope this helps im sure profesionals could do it but prob costs a ton.
If the table doesn’t have a sealer on it, but rather some kind of oil finnish, you can make a dent disappear by dampening the wood at the dent, and using a hot iron over a piece of aluminum foil, heat the area. It will cause the crushed fibers to swell up to their former size.
