Hey everyone! I'm in a bit of a bind here. I've got this table with leaves, and the part where the dowel fits has broken around the hole. I'm not sure what that area is called, but I really need advice on how to reassemble it and make the connection secure again. If anyone could guide me on how to fix this, that would be amazing! Also, I have some measurements: the dowel is 7mm or a quarter inch thick and about 39mm (or 1.5 inches) long. I really appreciate any help you can offer!

It seems like you’re having trouble posting those pictures! Without them, it might be a bit tricky to give specific advice, but I recommend using wood glue for small parts first. If the hole is too damaged, you might consider filling it with wood filler and redrilling for a new dowel. Let us know how the pictures go!
Don't forget to sand down the area for a smooth finish before applying the glue or filler!
Thanks for the advice! I’ll definitely try wood glue. I’m still figuring out how to post the pics.
