As a youth I worked on boats, we would paint the deck all over, then mask areas off, repaint within the panels created, sprinkle the finest sharp sand to be found(sieved) then left to dry.

Hi there's a product range called repair care which is perfect for this. You use a die grinder to "eat away" all the rotten wood, then prime with a liquid 2 pack epoxy and then use the thixotropic paste to fill back what you remove. It has the bendiness and same hardness as the wood. It's super...

Hi you can buy 5ft square birch ply, it's super expensive, but then why wouldn't it be?

Just a thought, we flatten slabs routinely with a 3000x2000 cnc router with a 63mm tipped cutter which works really well. I'm noyt touting for business but I suggest that you may have a local equivalent who can do the work normally around 60 a slab both sides, which is ready for sanding with 120...
