Here are a couple of old sayings about the use of wood filler, putty and all other goopious pastes other than ear wax used to fill up defects..... thought I would share these.
1). PUTTY IS MY BUDDY!
2). IN SKILL AND TOOLS WE PLACE OUR TRUST.... WHAT THEY CAN'T DO, WELL THEN, PUTTY MUST.

Thanks Dev, the second quote certainly applies to me. I might even post it in my shop.

"Do your best and caulk the rest" (More construction than wood putty I'd spose)

When the joint's too tough for glue to tackle, use a few nails and break out the spackle!

My tag line was a quote from a contractor during some market research we were doing. Another one I liked was from a developer -
"I want to be on the leading edge - not the bleeding edge."
Oh, and if you're ever in the UK and happen to have a nasal midwestern twang - make sure you enunciate "caulk" otherwise you'll get a lot of these :eek: :eek: and won't understand why. :D

If the joint ain't tight....it ain't right
If you fill it with wood dough
the whole world will know...
Better start over
get some new wood
like a fine woodworker should
