Default Re: Shaping new wood to fit

Details, Details! I'm getting away from the concepts and into actuality now. First off, yours is a 29, I have a 30, big difference? I don't know! Your outer nailer/stringer looks as thought you can save it. I got the impression that all your wood was shot. Since you've already made and fitted you new header, my only suggestion is to fill up the gaps. Either with a small chip of wood or some commercial filler. The twisting and pulling will be held to a minimum.
