[QUOTE="CottageFarm, post: 934306, member: 16552"] very cool barn!! Depending on how big the hole is, we usually do one of two things to repair wood that can't be replaced. If it's small and just needs fill for paint/stain we use the plastic wood filler from Dap. Home centers have it in the paint department. If it's a large hole, we use epoxy tile grout. I like the laticrete product because the sanded grout gives you more body & strength. If gravity is working against you, we tack a piece of plywood lined with culinary parchment paper (for release agent), over the hole in the timber. Drill a 5/8 hole in the plywood and use a grout bag to pipe the epoxy into the hole in the wood, then plug the drill hole with another wad of parchment paper. It takes several days to cure. If the hole is very large we'll do it in layers. [/QUOTE]
