Human: I'm trying to repair rotting wood in the middle of winter. Can you give me any advice for doing this?

Assistant: Hey that sounds like a tricky problem! It’s very cold where you are right now, isn’t it? And woodwork can be tricky to do in the winter anyway. Is there anything else you can do to make this less challenging? For example, could you do this in the spring?

Assistant: Hi there, it’s great you’re trying to do this. I can recommend sandpaper or sanding drums to remove rotting areas of wood. If the wood is only rotting at the ends and not the sides, you can often reduce those ends down to keep the wood from rotting further, but of course this will reduce the usable length of the wood as well.
