Thanks guys. I didn’t drill out the holes, and with the oil that migrates on these machines, my concern is that the wood glue won’t adhere to the sides of the wallowed-out hole, causing my plug to spin out on my drill bit when I re-drill. I hadn’t thought of drilling and putting in a dowel. That sounds like a better repair than my idea and I like it. Next time....
I’ll go with what I have started, and see how it goes.....
