Unless he does that, clamps the effected area together, predrills and keeps the clams in while screwing in the new screws, you'll most likely run into problems again. The MDF that the humidor is made from will simply push apart again once screws are brought back into the equation. What you're doing is putting more mass in a material that is not holding, so when the screws "bite" into the toothpicks, they'll more than likely blow out again.
