I filled the voids by filling with dust and then super thin ca. Finally I dropped a blob of ca in the void and sanded it while wet which fills the holes. You may have to do it several times to get the hole totally filled but it gets there in the end.

Very nice dad, very nice indeed.
I use same method for filling voids in Burrs, I prefer the wood dust to fancy powders and metal dusts.
