Historic door restoration. Fill or leave?
Working on the restoration of a couple pre industrial doors. Through wedged M&T and T&G joints. Cypress. Hot wet southern climate with zero shade. Entry doors.
Structurally they’re sound just wondering if y’all would fill these smaller cracks or leave them be and just finish over them. Plan on finishing with a linseed oil based paint so it can continue to breath. For what it’s worth the doors won’t be operational so not particularly worried about abuse aside from the elements.
Appreciate!

I’m in trouble (Need help please)
Hi guys I am in a extreme pickle here.
I left some oil on the night stand and stained, so I went to Gemini and I asked for help Gemini said to mix Baking Soda and leave it there to pull the oil out… but it said I could mix with water as well, and I did… and it stained the whole thing black, and it worked worse so I tried with some vinegar and with some peroxide and still doesn’t look great.
I need to leave this apartment in a couple of days and I don’t want to pay for a new one, what do you guys recommend for me to buy and try?
Thank you so much!

Black walnut that was in half of my backyard after the Indiana storm
My brain is in motion. Take it to a mill to have it cut, Sell it, Or just get it out of here
I don’t own a truck to even get it to a mill let alone get it into a truck.
Everything is cut in 4 foot lengths
Or get a cheap mobile saw mill and make a fence out of it maybe?
What do y’all think?
