BTW, don't make the mistake of using dry wall studs. You probably know all of this but they are much too brittle.

Good Luck -

I have a "cottage". Really it's a tiny thing that resembles a large shack! I've 
been doing some sill repairs but some of the studs sitting on the rotted sill have rotted 
as well. I was thinking about cutting out the rotted bottom section,  splicing in a new 
piece of stud and then sistering it all up with another 2x4. Does the sistering stud have 
to reach all the way up to the top plate? I can't realistically do this because it 
extends through the ceiling into the second floor. Any thoughts?
