The pictures show the rot, the cleaned out deck, and pieces of plywood that replace some of the rotten core. I bought a $99 table saw at Home Depot and it is useful. It is set up here to cut a kerf on the edges of the plywood where they meet the edge of the deck. Works great but I still have to do some vicious sculpting with the big disc sander to make them lay down against an uneven surface.
I got in a full morning work on Friday Am. In the afternoon we fetched the F-24 from Canyon Ferry. Yesterday it rained hard all day and I was discouraged by weather predictions of rain, cold and snow for the next five days. However, today we got some sun and I put in 8 hours and got MOST of the new pieces of the deck carved out! This feels good! Construction rather than destruction.The epoxy is scheduled to get here tomorrow. I am able to trace the progress of the epoxy in the UPS system on-line, a very helpful application.Clouds came over and the wind turned cold at 5:30, I thought that meant rain is coming, and I stopped what I was doing and Mom helped put the cover back on and clean up a little. Time for dinner.
