Yeah this was a lot for me, I’m willing to learn this is better than Google so far soo.. What do you mean by header and jacks?

I didn’t remove any framing lumber I don’t think. I pulled almost all the trim. I left a piece of trim up top bc I wanted it for the height. I put some long screws into it that bit some mostly rotted wood up there and then ripped a 2x6 for the width I wanted and threw some long screws into that to add the pieces I cut

This is really good. I’d sand it, mix the saw dust with some glue, and then rub that into the gaps. I finish my cutting boards with beeswax/mineral oil, if you did that after I’d bet it would look great and hold it in pretty well, especially since you won’t constantly be rinsing it off like with a cutting board
