Any suggestions chaps?

Well I would cut several strips of ply the depth of the joist and
screw + glue them on either side so the tops are at the finished
height. Then I would get a hand saw and lie it across the ply and
saw the top
off. Stager the joints in the ply and use it as the reinforcement.


Dennis,

It's rare for me to openly contradict another poster here, but with
all due respects, I think you really are talking through your hat!



Of all the posters to choose from you had to choose dennis:-)


Ignore them all, Dennis (as you do). Why change the habit of a lifetime, I
for one, enjoy reading your tripe.
*choke*
Ahhhh yessssssssss, Dennis, what an appropriate name.
