ALL of the wood in this door came from One Tree !!

Please take note of the tightness of the growth rings ...... it took over 45 years for this tree to grow 1 inch ......

ALL of the wood in this door came from One Tree !! I indexed my wood 10 years ago when it was milled

All of my doors are straightened and splined by me ....... from rough lumber

Here I am shaping the stock

and the cope them ends before I machine for my "secret" splined tennons

The arch is sawn then surfaced with a 100 year old "compass plane"

EACH piece of my doors are hand cut and fit to the exact length ..... the "right way"
