I've found that a sliver of solder works well, also.
 
I usually just use the CA. If you spray plenty of accelerator before
applying the glue, the glue will set up in the hole before it soaks into
the wood. 
 
I routinely apply a couple of drops of CA (no accelerator) glue to high
use screw holes, such as action stack screws. I don't use accelerator
unless they are stripped. I'm not looking to fill up the holes, just
reinforce the threads so I want the glue to soak into the wood in this
application.

I found that a sliver of leather, and CA glue worked well. The CA glue,
by itself, did not have enough body.
Mind you the holes, were kind of stripped.

Hi David,
If you have the old screws, a little CA in the holes to firm up and size
the hole, may be all you need.

List,
 
I need to repair/replace all of the screws in the piano hinge of the
lids on a Kawai 7 ft. grand.   Does anyone know off hand what size they
might be?   I will need a couple of boxes of small brass screws...I
haven't seen the piano.
 
David I.
