I cut a piece of hardwood to fill most of the void and filled in the rest with Minwax high performance wood filler. It really stinks, but sets up fast and sands easily.

Aside from a drill press, all I have are a few hand tools. I figure I can patch the holes and apply new veneer like I did one the shelf.

I've been applying Constantine walnut paste grain filler tonight and am almost done.
