All four of my dining room chair legs are kind of loose and no matter how many times I try to tighten up the screws, they feel stripped.
I work late during the week so Saturdays is the only day I can take them somewhere to get repaired.

Back out the screws, use toothpicks and wood glue to fill the screw holes. Let it set for a day or two. Reinstall screws. Glue the joints before you screw it back together.

Use wood filler. Slightly overfill. Put screw back in while it’s wet.



The repair place is either going to do that or slightly drill the hole, glue a dowel rod into the hole then screw it back.

I've used this before: Home Depot

It can be a pain to get in the hole, but once it's in it holds great.
