Reviving the gate
We had found some wood reviver in the barn leftover from when Brian was renovating the floorboards, so Brian slapped a couple of coats onto the bare wood to help add some moisture and goodness back into the dry areas. He then screwed some pieces of wood, that had fallen off, back into place and started to fill some of the gaps.
This is going to be a slow and careful job of filling and sanding, trying to recreate the original pattern where the wood has cracked and become weather damaged.
