"Awesome ideas... yes I did see your pic but it kept closing on me for some odd reason."

I've noticed that when viewing forum photos on a phone, they close when touching them on the screen. If I want to actually zoom in and move them, I need to use an actual computer. Perhaps that was the issue.

Tap the photo and hold it a split second, it will go to full screen. Then you can zoom or whatever you want to do. At least that’s the case for iPhone.

Yup that must be it.

That worked perfectly on my android. 😊

I think Wavery has the right approach. Remove as much bad material as practical and replace that section with good material.

That said, another tool in the toolbox might be BOATLIFE's GitRot penetrating epoxy for dry rotted wood. I sucessfully used this product to rebuild a spongy rotted floor in a 1965 Glaspar speed boat. It has the consistency of kerosene and can be painted on repeatedly and soaks right in to the wood. Once hardened, the floor became rigid again and was still good when I sold the boat 10 years later. I would recommend incorporating this product with whatever repair you make to assure the repair is impervious to future rot.

You might also consider using Simpson Strong-Tie joining plates in your repair. Those are strong and might make the scarfing process easier.
