2013-01-25MIKE BIRKE: Sure will. No problem. Once it's mixed with epoxy, and it cures, you can almost treat it like JB Weld.
2013-01-25MARK WAKEFORD: Hello Alfred:
I can't say I have any experience with "brain cavities". However, I did use use this wood filler for filling cracks and holes in wood prior to finishing. The only trick is to decide what kind of glue you want to use. I used a 2 part clear Epoxy(extended set), which I mixed the wood filler into (would be expensive for large projects such as yours). The resulting hardened mixture was so much harder than wood. As far as screws, you would need to pre-drill your holes as I doubt you would be able to self-drill a regular wood screw( and I am not fond of self-drilling screws in wood as it tends to rip out the wood and cause a poor grip). You can also consider Auto body Bondo( 2 part) if color is not important, this would cost considerably less than Epoxy( yet not as strong and hard, but more than sufficient for your mounts). As you may know the typical adhesive used for this filler is casein wood glue(very cheap). You can experiment with this and see if it would be strong enough for your mounts( I think it would, but large areas would take several days to cure and there would be some shrink back as casein glues are water based). If I was you, I would forget the wood filler and just use the Auto body Bondo ( much, much cheaper).
2013-01-26JERRY A. OLSON: I don't know the answer to that. I would mix some wood flour with epoxy and let it set up in a sample mass. Then I would drill and screw it to see if it would hold.
2013-01-26SANTO SANTORIELLO: If used to thicken epoxy, it can be drilled and tapped to accept screws.
This is often done in boat construction.
Nothing fills, mixes and adheres better than wood filler and epoxy to wood, fiberglass or other porous matterals. It can be screwed into, painted or used as structural material with no problems.

Comments about System Three Wood Flour Filler:
I found it to mix easily with west system epoxy, and worked well for thickening epoxy for fillets, gap filling and etc. Sands much more easily than colloidal silica when that level of strength is not paramount. It mixes up and dries to an unpleasant brown color, so don't plan to leave it barem, and clean as you go. I have not drilled it, and don't know how well it performs in holding screws. I would probably use colloidal silica in the instance of any structural fastener support, etc.....

Comments about System Three Wood Flour Filler:
Wood filler is used to thicken epoxy for gluing and filleting. I find this product mixes better than others that I have tried. It is preferable to sanding dust which is just too coarse. It has adequate strength for gluing purposes.
