Plugging Hole in Walking Cane Handle

Ok. Now, that we're done sanding it. We do have a little gap around our handle here. Which is sort of unavoidable, unless you spend a whole lot of time carving it exactly to fit. So, I'm taking some little shavings of wood from a previous part of this project. And, I'm just going to waddle them a little bit. Stick it down in this hole. And, take another little skinny one and stick that one right here. Drive it in as far as I can. That's ok, it broke off. But, it broke off flush. Get our dremel. That looks pretty good. Now, just to make sure that gets down in there. I'm going to take a screwdriver and push down on these little plugs I just put in there to get them deep. So, it just leaves a little bit of a crack. But, not so deep the glue runs out the bottom. Ok. That's down in there a little bit. And, that should work ok. So, the next step is to fill this crack. And, we're going to fill it with metal shavings.
