Patching trick for rotted wood

If you have outside portions of your home (sills, doors, windows, etc.) rotting away and you can't justify replacement, the following technique has worked great for me; a) Remove all rotted wood. b) If the cavity is large, fill some of the volume with scraps of treated wood. c) Mix up some auto body filler and fill the remaining cavity. d) File and/or sand to shape, paint to match. It works! Jim Mueller
