It also works with sawdust, cotton balls, or a mix of baking soda and powdered pencil lead (which is clay and graphite). There's a rabbit hole of YT vids on it.
I have a kitchen cabinet door hinge that keeps coming loose. Have tried numerous fillers and glues to get the screw to hold, with only temporary success. Next time, I'm going to try a Q-tip head and super glue.

Ya, you're late to the game... 😁 We used super glue and baking soda when building RC airplanes back in the late '70s. The thicker gap-filling super glue wasn't out yet, the baking soda filled in the gaps in joints and made a stronger & lighter joint than using two-part epoxy for assembly.
