  • A: replacing a single 2x6



    I think you can successfully remove the board by cutting it lengthwise down the middle, then you can pry it out one side at a time.
    To get a new one in there, cut off the "tongues".
    Hope that helps.

    If your not good using a circular saw or reciprocating saw. A fein oscillating cutting tool or similar brand may be the way to go but would take much longer.
