    Great video. Not enough videos on RUclips like this on repairing these old boards.

    Thanks for the video. John, could a person use wood glue with this technique? Do you recommend doing this on fragile boards before or after using infrared to strip the paint? Thank you!

      I would use a "type 1" weatherproof adhesive (such as TiteBond III) after stripping. But keep in mind that I do not recommend using any high-heat dry-heat method (like infrared, hot-air gun or open flame) directly on standing buildings because of the fire risk. I do use infrared on building parts that are removed and worked on in the shop where the situation and fire risk is more under control.

    Good vid. Thank you. What type of gap filling epoxy adhesive do you use?

      Here I'm using a mixture of an epoxy consolidant (Abatron LiquidWood) and an epoxy paste filler (Abatron WoodEpox). The West System also has some good gap filling epoxy adhesives suitable for exterior woodwork.
