    Probably sanding to remove it, depending on the severity of the burn.

    Post up a picture.

    What size is it, it doesn,t look too big. Is boring it out, and a plug an option.

    Scraper is probably the best bet. If you not sure ask in you local toolshop. It's a very small tool that Cabinet Makers use and it doesn't even look like a tool just looks liek a piece of metal.

    The scraper will scrape very fine layers of the wood/burn mark away until its gone. You would need to varnish the are afterwards
