Ham fisted kitchen fitter.... how should I remedy?

[Brian Gaff (Sofa 2)]

For a while body filler? Eventually though the orible quality of the board will make it fall to bits. Brian

A power screwdriver is perhaps seen as a symbol of being a professional!

[Jim GM4DHJ ...]

oh right

[tabbypurr]

perfectly doable - refitting the screw wouldn't be though. A strong wet filler is best, if you've got none sometimes dry plugging can be adequate. MDF & chip aren't the strongest materials.

As it happens, I experienced this problem yesterday.

Matchsticks and PVA, leave to dry, screw in. No problem.

That ONLY works if you have a hole and not something resembling a crater to work with
