Table Position When Traveling

I have found that the screws started pulling out of the hinges of my folding tabletop. Out of 8 screws, half of them would not tighten because they stripped the wood out. I identified those offenders, shot JB Weld into the holes stripped out and set the hinges back in. I realize that JB Weld might be a little extreme instead of a wood putty but I did not plan on this thing being a problem again.

I never had a problem with my '77 Excella but then I always had the table set up and one side of the table folded on top of the other. On the '86 Sovereign, I have traveled over the last year with the table leg folded and table stored next to the side of the trailer, i.e. down. From now on, the table will have the leg out and the table up.

Has anyone had this problem and what do you do?
