>Drill holes can be deeper to allow more epoxy to creep into the substrata.
>Drill holes will give you a better idea of the condition deeper.  Several
>drill holes will allow more epoxy to be injected.  After making the holes,
>dry sawdust can be put in as structural reinforcement.  Creeping or seeping
>epoxy is a proven modern repair system.  Do not mix all your epoxy at one
>time, as you will likely have to put it in the hole two or more times as it
>soaks or seeps in.
