Rotten door frame repairs

I know, not very exciting....but other than helping Robert move into his new place, this is ALL I did this past weekend!! The front door was equally "yucky". Big rotten area had to be removed.

Buzzed all the rotten/soft wood out with the handy vibrating tool.

Then started the process of layering Bondo back into the void.

And viola!  After many layers, sculpting and sanding, it looks just like the missing wood!

Fresh coat of paint and new caulking.  Hopefully, I'll remember to come back next year and re-caulk so we don't have any more of this kind of problem!!!

You thought I was done, didn't you?????


But no, there's MORE!!!  This one looks like a small repair, doesn't it? 

By the time we got all the rot sawed away, it left a large hole!

Filled in the bulk of the space with some "plastic" board material and  finished with more Bondo.

 Preliminary sanding....

And there you go, another repair accomplished!
