Hi Newton, Saliva has a lower surface tension than water--therefore it will enter the wood and cause it to swell rather than beading up on the surface. Try some steam--it works *very* well! >Saliva works well to shrink overly large holes, better than >water, but don't ask me why. Regards, Don Rose, B.Mus., A.M.U.S., A.MUS., R.M.T., R.P.T.
